A person was suffering for a long time, because of which he was very irritable and angry.
He was always surrounded by the thought that he has to bear all the expenses of the house, the responsibility of the whole family is on him, some relative visits him every day, he has to spend a lot, etc. .
Thinking about these things, he was often very upset, often scolded his children and for one reason or another he used to quarrel with his wife.
Time passed like this.
One day his son came to him and said ... Dad please do my school homework.
The man was already stressed, so he scolded the son severely, but after a while his anger calmed down, he went to the son and saw that the son was fast asleep and his hands There was a copy of his homework.
As he picked up the copy and tried to put it down, his eyes fell on the homework title.
The homework was titled..... Things We Don't Like At First, But They're Good Later.
On this heading the child had to write a paragraph which he wrote. In curiosity, he started reading the child's handwriting. The child had written...
* I'm very thankful for my final exam because it doesn't look good at first but then the school holidays come.
* I am very grateful for the bad taste of bitter medicines because at first they taste bitter but they cure me of sickness.
* I am thankful for the morning alarm clock that wakes me up and makes me feel bad but it tells me every morning that I am alive.
* I am also very grateful to God who gave me such a good father because his scolding seems very bad to me at first but he brings me toys but takes me for walks and feeds me good things and I am glad that I have a father. Because my friend Raju's father is not in this world.
A person suddenly wakes up from sleep after reading the child's homework. His thinking changed. The words written by the child were going over and over in his mind. Especially that last line. He was sleep deprived. Then that person sat for a while and started thinking about his troubles.
* I have to bear all the expenses of the house, means I have a house and by the grace of God I am in a better position than those who do not have a house.
* I have to bear the responsibility of the whole family, that means I have a family, a wife, a child and by the grace of God I am more fortunate than those who have no family and are completely alone in the world.
* Some or the other friend or relative keeps coming to my house, it means that I have social status and there are people who support me in my ups and downs.
* I spend a lot, it means I have a good job and I am better than people who are unemployed because of money or deprived of many things and comforts.
I am blessed with life and I am sorry, I could not recognize your grace.

I simply can not stay in the negative as I know I am In Christ Jesus and he's working me through is program. Trial and success reminds me that I am foreknown...
His grace knows no bounds.
His mercy knows no limits.
His love is infinite.
Sometimes we have to stop complaining and look back at the things in our lives we can be thankful for. Look back at the things God gave us. He gave us a family. He gave us a home. He gave us our church. He gave us a job. He gave his only begotten son, that we may know salvation.
Besides acknowledging these things (and more), we have to be thankful not just in our minds, but also in our words. Thank the Lord for all he has done for us.
And even in the most challenging of times, by the GRACE of God, we know peace, we know joy, we know security, we know stability, we know comfort, we know hope.
Us humans can never be enough. There will always be areas we are lacking, times where we have troubles, we will always have our issues and shortcomings, and it seems like no matter what we do to try improving ourselves, it does not work. But God sees past all of that and wants us to ask for and redeem his Grace and Mercy.
Thank you for reminding me of that.
This was like a gentle slap in the face.
thank you
