Last year I took a trip to Kenya, which left a permanent stamp
on my spirit, heart and mind. The vast majority of people there live
in dirt floor huts and shacks. Water is a luxury and toilets consist
of a hole in the wood floor of an outhouse (there's not even a seat and
certainly no TP). Yet, these people are the most thankful, joyful,
generous people you ever want to meet. If you were to enter their home
and they had only one piece of fruit for the family they'd give it to
you.give thanks today, please remember to thank Him for the simple
things we take for granted every day - freedom, water and electricity
we have at our command, our jobs, cars, a pantry full of snacks and
luxuries (remember those who scrounge to get one meal a day, when we
can indulge at will), the ability to go replace something when we run
out, the list goes on. That's not to say we need to feel guilty about
our riches, just appreciative!
