Why do I struggle to make a living. When the young people now days seem to have the money to spare?
Why do some older people, have to live in poor houses because they have nothing?
Why do I have to live where it gets so hot it is almost unbearable?
Why do some people die because of the heat because they have no air conditionings and no money to get one.?
Why do I get impatient when my office don't get done when I think it should?
Why do some people have to live in cars because they have no other place to go?
Why do I get impatient when I'm interrupted to get a meal?
Why do some people have nothing to cook?
Why did I get tired of dirty diapers?
Why do some women long for babies and never get them?
Why do I get frustrated when the house gets messy?
Why do some people have no house to clean?
Why did my son have a breakdown on a very busy weekend? Why did we have to stay up all night and then work the next day?
Why do some mothers have a child that is mentally handicapped , when my son got well.
Why was our first son born with an incurable disease?
Why do some women have to raise a son with an incurable disease, when my son was healed?
Why did my son have a wreak and ruin his nice pick up truck.? He had just bought it and was so happy for it Thankfully he walked away with just a few scratches.
Why was it, just a month before my son had his wreak, that one of my son's best friends, was in an accident and killed.? Now his mother weeps in loneliness.
Why is it that I can't speak plain anymore? It is such a bother.
Why is it that some people are born blind or can not speak at all?
The Psalmist has these word to say from Psalms 25. Parts of verses 1-6 ( the whole chapter is my prayer)
UNTO THEE, O LORD, DO I LIFT UP MY SOUL, O MY GOD I TRUST IN THEE, LET ME NOT BE ASHAMED, LET NOT THE ENEMY TRIUMPH OVER ME. SHOW ME THY WAYS, O LORD, TEACH ME THY PATHS. LEAD ME IN THY TRUTH, AND TEACH ME: FOR THOU ART THE GOD OF MY SALVATION; ON THEE DO I WAIT ALL THE DAY. REMEMBER, O LORD THEY TENDER MERCIES AND THY LOVINGKINDNESSES.
I thank God for all His blessing on me:

Beautiful post and wonderful perspectives. Thank you for sharing.
Grandma...its fine that you cant speak very clearly...I know its very hard(I know I would go insane
) but even if you cant say everything you want to I still love you, youre an awesome grandma. I seriously cant think of a better one

I love your perspective check. Though some days a good ol' pity party would be nice!
I had to smile at the first one....young ppl with money to spare. Maybe some of them do, but I think most of it points to C-R-E-D-I-T. We would rather have less and let ppl think we're "poor" than live in bondage to peer pressure and payments.
love your insights, as always! Have a lovely day!
Vonda (put up with you) I did nothing of the kind. I only wish I had more to entertain you children, so you wouldn't get so bored
Little Sweetie. You're smart living within your means. When a person lives with-in their means, what they do have, means more. Besides What's better than to be loved and love is FREE.
Nice perspective to ponder and reflect upon today. Hope you have a lovely day.
Thank you. God is good about reminding us of His care, isn't He? The sad thing is that we need reminding. Thanks for being His instrument today.

I totally agree with young people having more money now. I have a problem with people thinking its all credit card debt if people are able to get ahead financailly. I hear this thrown around a lot and yes, there is a lot of credit card abuse in America. but there is also a chance for young people to make big bucks like never before.
Shelly and her husband are making huge money without credit card debt other than mortgage and car. The potential to make the kind of money that they are making in their 20's was just not available to kids in the 70's!
And they are not alone. I know gobs of young families rolling the bucks. Maybe its where we live but times are affluent and opportunites abound that never did in my day.
Point taken Mrs. D. I didn't mean any offense to any particular person by what I said. Only that I do know many people our age that will never see debt free at that rate they are headed.
Thank you for the perspective.
And for visiting my site--shutting the door!--that will definitely be on the agenda! Have a great day.
Tigerslittlesweetie, I certainly was not offended. I was just stating a fact.
