WHY ME GOD?

"Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me."  Psalm 102:3

How often we hear people ask that question when something happens to them that is not to their liking.  "Why me God?' 

I was sitting on the swing on the verandah today having lunch with Christine and Theresa and we got to thinking.............why don't we ask the question like this.  "Why me God?  Why do you let me live in such a safe, beautiful country such as Canada?  Why do I have the good health that I have?  Why did I get to know about Jesus and accept Him as my Saviour?  Why do I have a family who loves me?  Why do I have more than enough food to eat each day?  Why do I have a loving church family and the freedom to attend it?  Why do I have clean water to drink every day?  Why did I get to have an education and have things to keep me busy each day that give me fulfillment and purpose?  Why do we have good hospitals and doctors to look after us when we have health problems?  Why me God? 

Yes, we have things that happen that may make us question the goodness of God in our lives but if we were to really sit down and count our blessings, we would have to admit that we have more reason to question His goodness to us in a positive way. 

God is good, all the time!  All the time, God is good!

Why me God? Why do I have a nice safe place in which to live and serve You? Thank You for ministry and the joy of doing things that help others. I am so satisfied at the end of the day and rest so well when I go to bed at night. These may seem like simple things but having worked in the health care system for 20 years I know better than to take it for granted. Thank You Lord.

That really made me stop and think yesterday, Judy. I to often question why did this happen to me God. Today God may I ask why God did You give me such wonderful and good friends, why did I get to be born in Canada, a land flowing with milk and honey, why did you allow me to have a safe place to live right now in my life, free from stress and anger. Thank You God for giving me all of these good things in my life.
