I AM RICH!

How do you determine wealth?

money?
chocolate goodness?
the depth of the awesomeness of something?

I recently watched the movie Courageous. One of the parts of the movie that struck me the most is when Xavier figured out that he was indeed "rich".  That struck me so hard. Sometimes, I forget exactly how rich I truly am. Some weeks at this house are great and some are a little tight as far as money. We always eat and we have our needs met. All that aside, we have so much more. We have been through the fire. We have stood together (occationally, we stood on different sides). We are overcomers and we are so much more than we know. I may have woken up this morning feeling a cold coming on. I may have been happy to see the check hit the bank. I may have heard my 2 boys and their friend playing music and a game. I may be about to get up and do all the "things" I need to get done today. In all this, I want to remember how extremely RICH I truly am. I have the

LOVE of my GOD, who never lets me down.

LOVE of my family, who sees my flaws and they still choose me.

LOVE of my dog Bob, who loves me unconditionally and teaches me daily to do the same.

LOVE of my friends, who are so awesome!

I AM the richest person you know!!!

Have a blessed day today.
