Hi TL and others,<BR>I received this via e-mail and I wanted to share it with you during this difficult time. It helped me stay focused on what is important in life, what I need to do to reach the goal. <BR>(((hugs))) cl<P> Subject: Memo<BR>Memo From GOD<BR> "I am God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please<BR> remember that I do not need your help. If life happens to deliver a<BR> situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it.<BR>Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. It will be<BR> addressed in My time, not yours. Once the matter is placed into the<BR> box, do not hold on to it or remove it. Holding on or removal will<BR> delay the resolution of your problem. If it is a situation that you<BR> think you are capable of handling, please consult me in prayer to be<BR> sure that it is the proper resolution.<BR> Because I do not sleep nor do I slumber, there is no need for you to<BR> lose any sleep. Rest my child. If you need to contact me, I am only a<BR> prayer away." BE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE:<BR> Should you find it hard to get to sleep tonight; just remember the<BR> homeless family who has no bed to lie in.<BR> Should you find yourself stuck in traffic; don't despair. There are<BR> people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.<BR> Should you have a bad day at work; think of the man who has been out of<BR> work for years. Should you despair over a relationship gone bad;<BR> think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved<BR> in return. Should you grieve the passing of another weekend;<BR> think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days<BR> a week to feed her children.<BR> Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance;<BR> think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.<BR> Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; think of the cancer<BR> patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.<BR> Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about,<BR> asking "what is my purpose?"; be thankful. There are those who didn't<BR> live long enough to get the opportunity.<BR> Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness,<BR> ignorance, smallness or insecurities; remember that things could be<BR> worse, you could be them.<p>[This message has been edited by cl (edited October 18, 1999).]
