BEFORE YOU THINK!

Before you think of saying an unkind word…
Think of someone who can’t speak or hear…

Before you complain about the taste of your food…
Think about someone who has nothing to eat…

Before you complain about life…
Think about somebody who went too early to death…

Before you complain about your children or grandchildren…
Think about somebody who desires children and can’t have any…

Before you complain about your dirty house, someone didn’t clean or sweep…
Think about the people everywhere who are living on the streets…

Before whining about the distance you drive to work and such…
Think about someone who walks that same distance because they have no choice…

Before complaining about being too tired from your job…
Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job…

Before you think of pointing a finger or condemning another…
Remember that not one of us is without sin, and we will all answer to one Maker…

Before your start to protest about the war in Iraq and elsewhere…
Think about the soldiers, both sides, and their families then pray, not complain…

Before you start to fuss about your president and government…
Remember we live in the greatest country in the world and God is in control…

Before you start to worry about taxes and bills, remember…
To praise the Lord who owns everything anyhow…

Before you start to think depressing thoughts, sit down,
Put a smile on your face and thank God you’re alive and still around…

Before you get too wrapped up in all the things of life…remember…
Life is a gift, Live it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it, and fulfill it…

Before you know it, your time may be up…!
