People of faith will often say things like their lives have been 'blessed'.
*IS* that really true? Or, are they fooling themselves into thinking so? Do they say life falsely thru a half-full glass and rose colored glasses, with their faith?
*I* have had various experiences in my life where I have witnessed to others that I have been blessed. That perhaps God's hand was at work. But have *I* been honest with myself? There are numerous things I have had happen bad to me also, but I have sort of over looked them.
I think that by remembering the bad, you hold yourself back, in your emotional state.
I wonder how many people out there who credit God with the positive things in their life, are also overlooking the bad things.
How has *your* life gone. Think about it...then comment please.
