"May God bless you with discomfort At easy answers, half-truths, and superficial relationships So that you may live deep within your heart.
May God bless you with anger At injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, So that you may work for justice, freedom, and peace.
May God bless you with tears To shed for those who suffer pain, rejection, hunger and war, So that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and To turn their pain into joy. And may God bless you with enough foolishness To believe that you can make a difference in the world, So that you can do what others claim cannot be done To bring justice and kindness to all our children and the poor.
Amen."
I think God has really blessed me with foolishness. Crazy as it seems haha! but I really think so. Its so amazing how God takes whatever we think is so bad in our lives and makes it into something good, something useful. Just like this prayer I read from the starting of the 40 Days of Prayer book... Its really amazing. We should really learn to see the blessings we have even when things are going so wrong. God has given us so much. The ability to be able to wake up each morning, to have the sun rise, to live. So always know that you are blessed, because God loves you. =)

Tonight at Noon A Poem by Adrian Henri
Tonight at noon Supermarkets will advertise 3p extra on everything Tonight at noon Children from happy families will be sent to live in a home Elephants will tell each other human jokes America will declare peace on Russia World War I generals will sell poppies on the street on November 11th The first daffodils of autumn will appear When the leaves fall upwards to the trees
Tonight at noon Pigeons will hunt cats through city backyards Hitler will tell us to fight on the beaches and on the landing fields A tunnel full of water will be built under Liverpool Pigs will be sighted flying in formation over Woolton And Nelson will not only get his eye back but his arm as well White Americans will demonstrate for equal rights In front of the Black house And the monster has just created Dr. Frankenstein
Girls in bikinis are moonbathing Folksongs are being sung by real folk Art galleries are closed to people over 21 Poets get their poems in the Top 20 There's jobs for everybody and nobody wants them In back alleys everywhere teenage lovers are kissing in broad daylight In forgotten graveyards everywhere the dead will quietly bury the living and You will tell me you love me Tonight at noon
