More Than Enough

It didn’t take him long while growing up to realize he was poor… when he compared himself to other children and saw they had so much more They lived in bigger houses in a better part of town. They wore the newest clothes and rode in cars that didn’t break down When he asked his dad about it…his dad said, “Yes, son, times are tough but when I stop and think about it, I think we have enough.” “It’s true when you compare our life to others there are some things that we lack but we have enough money to pay our rent and put clothes upon our backs.” “We have enough food to eat enough eggs and milk and bread. We have comfortable beds to sleep on and a roof above our heads.” “And most importantly we have each other You have me…and I have you. If we lost everything else tomorrow… that’s enough to see us through. When he looked at his Dad’s smile he felt warm inside…content and when he looked around at all he had he saw what his dad meant… It’s amazing how life works sometimes… How, when we need it…what providence does for on the same day he thought that he was poor he discovered how rich he was.
