I Am Blessed

I'm just a little Southern Gal, and not much I do possess, but after all is said, and done, I know when I've been blessed. You see, fancy clothes do not matter to me, and a fine new car, I probably will never see, and when I die, I know I can't take them with me. The only thing, that is really mine, upon God's spinning ball, is the love within my heart, and He shares the gift, with one, and all. He gives me what I need, although I have questioned Him many times, why do some have so much, and I squeeze every dime. Then the answers are revealed, to my unseeing eyes, your mansion is in Heaven, and these things don't matter you seek, then I know what God has given me, will always be mine to keep.

Amen to that. I am learning everything that shines isn't gold and we don't know what others do to get what they have. Yes we are blessed for in Christ we have it all.
