My alarm clock<\/p><\/div>\n

Did you thank God Today?<\/p>\n

Did you thank God when you opened your eyes because you were able to actually see your alarm clock?<\/p>\n

Did you thank God that you were able to hear your alarm clock go off?<\/p>\n

Did you say a prayer for all those with disabilities who cannot see, hear or get out of bed on their own?<\/p>\n

Did you thank God that you woke up and have another day to do His will?<\/p>\n

Did you smile as you were able to turn on cold running water to brush your teeth?<\/p>\n

Did you consider those who have no indoor plumbing when you used your bathroom today?<\/p>\n

Did you curse the fact that you have to decide what to eat for breakfast when there are those who eat from a garbage dump daily?<\/p>\n

Did you get frustrated when you got in your car this morning to go to work?<\/p>\n

Did you consider all those who have no job and are 1 notice away from foreclosure?<\/p>\n

Today, truly thank God because no matter how bad you have it someone else has it much worse.<\/p>\n

Last night someone somewhere slept on a sidewalk… someone somewhere cannot see and has never known what any color looks like….someone somewhere has never heard an alarm clock, music, voices or chirping birds….someone somewhere went to a creek and washed their body in water that was not fresh clean or sanitary….someone somewhere in Belize is not only eating from the top of a garbage dump but also makes their housing in the rumble filth and rats….someone somewhere lives in her car and doesn’t have a job to drive to or a home to rest her head.<\/p>\n

Today, thank God you do not have to scrounge for food in others garbage.<\/p>\n

Today, thank God He has given you the opportunity to read, work, see, hear, hold a job and own a computer.<\/p>\n

Today, thank God for the life you have right now in this moment.<\/p>\n
