MAGANDANG UMAGA….Thank You too.
What more can I ask for?
We don’t have a huge house nor flashy cars, nor a big garden, neither a pool nor an estate outside the country. We don’t even have our own garage. Neither do we go on vacation many times a year, nor we have ever tasted the best caviar or most expensive champange. We don’t go around playing golf nor tennis or even just goof off during the day or spend it shopping, that sometimes would just buy anything for the sake of spending. Husband doesn’t even own a versace necktie nor I own a pair of shoes that would come close to what the Hilton sisters wear. We do not have servants like butler nor a cleaning lady. Nope, all those we don’t have so what more can we or I ask for?
At 7 am this morning I opened my eyes with the immediate thought of thanking God for the brand new day, that He lets me live for a day again, thanked for the oxygen that I breath, for my wonderful husband who was still softly snoring next to me, for my ferrets who were up early and crunching loudly on their breakfast in their little house downstairs, for the sunlight that was penetrating the bedroom curtain. I thanked God for a peaceful night…and for the load of work that was waiting for me to finish.
I guess in life there’s just so many things that we really ask for, but comparing to what God wants, sometimes I am ashamed because what He wants is but a fraction of my time, to talk to Him. That’s all. So what I want isn’t important anymore. It’s all about being satisfied with all the blessings that come my way and not wanting what isn’t there.
I felt God smiling back and saying: ‘you’re welcome’.
Senti ba? Corny din ba? …ang ganda kasi ng umaga ko eh!!
