Bumper64 Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 This is one of the nicest e-mails I have ever seen !! I dreamed that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with angels. My angel guide stopped in front of the first section and said, 'This is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to God said in prayer are received.I looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all over the world.Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the second section.The angel then said to me, "This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked for them." I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been requested and were being packagedfor delivery to Earth.Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the door of a very small station. To my great surprise, only one angel was seated there, idly doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment Section, my angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed. "How is it that there is no work going on here? I asked.""So sad," the angel sighed. "After people receive the blessings that they asked for, very few send back acknowledgments.""How does one acknowledge God's blessings? "I asked."Simple," the angel answered. Just say, "Thank you, Lord.""What blessings should they acknowledge?" I asked."If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world.If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy, and if you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity.""If you woke up this morning with more health than illness.. You are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day.""If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation... You are ahead of 700 million people in the world.""If you can attend a church without the fear of harassment, arrest, torture or death you are envied by, and more blessed than, three billion people in the world.""If your parents are still alive and still married.... you are very rare.""If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you're unique to all those in doubt and despair.......""Ok," I said. "What now? How can I start?"The Angel said, "If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you as very special and you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world who cannot read at all."Have a good day,count your blessings, and if you care to, pass this along to remind everyone else how blessed we all are..........ATTN: Acknowledge Dept. "Thank you Lord, for giving me the ability to share this message and for giving me so many wonderful people with whom to share it."If you have read this far, and are thankful for all that you have been blessed with, how can you not send it on?I thank God for everything, especially all my family and friends. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildeman Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 Thank you. Beautiful message. After surviving brain aneurysm surgery 9 yrs ago by a god gifted surgeon I like to give thanks every day for another day. In 1989 fx'd my lower spine in 2 places, compression fx l1 from a motorcycle accident, paralyzed from the waist down for 3 days, refused surgery and walked out of the hospital on my own in a week. It was a long, painful healing process but I made it thanks to God and got back on my steel horse 2 yr's after until I had to sell her when I had brain surgery. Prayer and meditation works along with love and faith. My wife was my rock while healing from brain surgery. Felt like I need to share. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie123 Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Thank You Bump... That is a beautiful message to remind us all of how important it is to thank God everyday. Thank you too for sharing Wildeman... sounds like you have more than most to be grateful for... I'm so glad to hear you are alive and walking!!! Aneurisms are often deadly or very damaging... I was just thanking God this morning for floors to sweep and a bathtub to clean... I'll admit I wasn't enjoying it so much until it hit me about all those people in Iraq and Syria who are displaced from their homes...millions of them. I "Thanked" God for all of our blessings...prayed for comfort and relief for all the innocent people that need help. Also for our guberment to stop perpetuating these crimes against humanity...for us to have enough courage and strength to stand up against them and help bring an end to so much suffering that is happening in our name.
