First World Problems

We use the phrase "first world problems."  Well, I hope that you use it.  But what does it mean?  The first world refers to the USA and its wealthy western ally countries.  The second world refers to the old Soviet Union and it's satellite nations.  The third world is made up of everything that is left.  Usually this phrase is used for the poorest of countries in the world.

First world problems are laughed at in the rest of the world.  Americans complain because the food that they ordered came out late.  They complain because their is no dog park near by.  Because the HOA has too many rules, or not enough rules.  We complain over the price of gas.  We complain we complain we complain.

Well, not all of us.  I hope that you don't complain.  We have so many blessings.  We have so much to be thankful for.  

The next time you are annoyed by something, ask yourself if people in Guatemala or the Congo would be complaining about this.

We have so much to be thankful for.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
