I caught myself today really upset because my day wasn’t going exactly how I planned. First of all I got 65s on two speeches I gave, second I got in a stupid fight with my roommates last night, and third I had a test in chemistry I didn’t know about. So yes, i was having a ruff day. But you know, I have so many things to be thankful for… I have a loving family who would do anything for me. I have amazing friends. I go to an incredible school that has changed my life. And most of all I have a savior who DIED for ME. ME! A filthy, stinking, sinner.  I am so blessed and I was feeling sorry for myself over a few grades? What about the kids that can’t go to elementary school much less a private college? What about the kids that are barely getting enough to eat everyday? What about all the single moms who have to work 12 hour days just to buy a weeks worth of groceries because their husband left them? What about the people who can’t fill the hole in their core because they don’t know Christ? Clayton King (look him up) talks about how we need to be generous. How generosity is what Jesus would do. So why don’t we be generous with our time and instead of spending time complaining why don’t we spend time praying for those people.  I challenge you to pray for people with greater needs than you next time you start to feel sorry for yourself. God blesses those who bless others.
