A couple of my friends were going on a trip out of the country.
Stop right there. Do we realize how fortunate that we are to be able to travel? To go from state to state and most countries freely? Do we realize how fortunate we are to be able to afford such trips? We should be thankful for that, whether it is a trip to Italy or a trip to Panama City. Travel is a blessing.
Now my friends were worried about what to take and what not to take. What if they forgot something? Then one of them realized... there is nothing to worry about. If we need something, we can borrow it from another traveler, or we could just buy the thing that we forgot.
Now there is something to be thankful for. Friends that will loan you what you forgot. Friends to travel with. And the ability to buy that thing that you forgot.
My gosh we are so blessed.
Dear Lord may we all appreciate how blessed we are. May it make us gracious, kind, humble and generous. Amen.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
