Tuesday of Holy Week, By Claudia Humphrey

Blessed is the man that perseveres under trial, because when he has

stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised

to those who love him.

James 1:12

I found this little poem in the San Diego Tribune probably thirty

years ago. I have no idea who wrote it, but it helps me in many ways

to remember its message when it pops into my head.

 

Thank God for dirty dishes,

they have a tale to tell.

While other folks go hungry

we are eating very well.

With home, health, and happiness

we shouldn’t want to fuss,

for by thus stack of evidence

God is very good to us.

 

Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
