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 is 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 acknowledgements!

'How does one acknowledge God's blessings?' I asked.

'Simple,' the angel answered. Just say, 'Thank you, Lord.'

'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'

'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 church 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, you just received 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.
