The Friday Prayer

New member Nancy Isely-Fletcher offered this insight and prayer Friday morning.

“If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.

If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death, you are more blessed than three billion people in the world.

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 someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealthy.

If your parents are still alive and still married, you are very rare, even in the United States and Canada.

If you are able to read these words, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all.

Let us pray. Lord, thank you for the many blessings we have: shelter, food, clothing, and our health. Help us to go out into the world every day, grateful for all the things we have. And may we share what we have with others we encounter each and every day. Especially our happiness. Amen.
