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.
