I am God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember
that I do not need your help. If life happens to deliver a situation to
you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it
in the "SFGTD" (something for God to do) box. All situations
will be resolved, but in My time, not yours. Once the matter is placed
into the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead, focus
on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic, don't despair. There are people
in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.
Should you have a bad day at work, think of the man who has been out of
work for years.
Should you despair over a relationship gone bad, think of the person who
has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return.
Should you grieve the passing of another weekend, think of the woman in
dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her
children.
Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance,
think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that
walk.
Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror, think of the cancer
patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.
Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about,
asking "what is my purpose?", be thankful. There are those who
didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.
Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness,
ignorance, smallness or insecurities, remember, things could be worse.
You could be one of them!
Should you decide to share this to a friend, thank you, you may have
touched their life in ways you will never know!

I received this
as a forwarded email from my second cousin, Ate Tek. This story is
probably available from other story sites and religious sites. However,
since I have a copy with no authorship, I will share this to all the
people of the world. This is a very good story.. rather, a letter ...
probably what God really wanted us to know.
Sometimes, we
complain about things not good in life. We overlook the possibilities
that we are not alone and that we are not the only people who experience
those miseries in life. We just do not notice that in this situation, we
even have a better life than those people who never complained but are
already in a worse situation than ours.
In times like
this, instead of remembering that God is there for us, we blame the
situation and we blame the circumstances but we never tend to think that
maybe, it is what God really wanted.
I
was one of these kinds of people before. I have so many problems and I
worry about them too much and that I almost forget that God is there for
me. Instead of offering myself and my problems to Him, I try to solve it
by myself ... just showing an act of conceitedness. While in reality,
God is there to solve them for me.
