One of the Nicest
Emails
This is one of the
nicest emails I have seen and what has been described
is so true:
I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was
showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside
a large workroom filled with angels. My angel guide
stopped in front of the first section and said,
"This is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions
to God said in prayer are received." I looked
around in this area, and it was terribly busy with
so many angels sorting out petitions written on
voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all
over the world.
Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached
the second section. The angel then said to me, "This
is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the
graces and blessings the people asked for are processed
and delivered to the living persons who asked for
them."
I noticed again how busy it was there. There were
many angels working hard at that station, since
so many blessings had been requested and were being
packaged for delivery to Earth.
Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor
we stopped at the door of a very small station.
To my great surprise, only one angel was seated
there, idly doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment
Section," my angel friend quietly admitted
to me. He seemed embarrassed
"How is it that? There's no work going on here?"
I asked.
"So sad," the angel sighed. "After
people receive the blessings that they asked for,
very few send back acknowledgments.
"How does one acknowledge God's blessings?"
I asked.
"Simple," the angel answered.
*"Just say, "Thank you, God." *
"What blessings should they acknowledge? "
I asked.
"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes
on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep
you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have
money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change
in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the worlds
wealthy.
"And if you get this on your own computer,
you are part of the 1% in the world who has that
opportunity."
Also:
"If you woke up this morning with more health
than illness, you are more blessed than the many
who will not even survive this day.
"If you have never experienced the fear in
battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony
of torture, or the pangs of starvation, you are
ahead of 700 million people in the world.
"If you can attend a prayer meeting without
the fear of harassment, arrest, torture or death
you are envied by, and more blessed than, three
billion people in the world.
"If your parents are still alive and still
married, you are very rare.
“If you can hold your head up and smile, you
are not the norm, you're unique to all those in
doubt and despair."
Ok, what now? How can I start?
If you can read this message, a double blessing
in that someone was thinking of you as very special
and you are more blessed than over two billion people
in the world who cannot read at all.
Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you
want, pass this along to remind everyone else how
blessed we all are. Attn: Acknowledgment Dept: Thank
You God! Thank you God, for giving me the ability
to share this message and for giving me so many
wonderful people to share it with". - Zeeshan
