Financially, I was wealthy my entire life until 2 years ago. I lost everything. When I say everything, I mean I lost my money, my husband to another woman, my best friend that died in my arms while attempting CPR, my home and my job. All at once! Then my credit. Why am I fortunate? Because God gave me a set of binoculars. I see so much now that I never saw before. Suddenly, being a poor person I saw how people treat you when you don't have anything. Jesus Christ was crucifed for being poor, because God's son could not be born of a carpenter. Blasphemous He was called for even saying someone poor could be the son of God! He was sending us a message. A message I get now. He came to show us what was important. I am completely blessed financially now. I have what I need. But for 2 years He made me see how people are when it comes to the world and how ugly it was! I will never forget. I guess people don't know that we are being tested right now and that our lives here are given for a moment, but eternally we will live in heaven or hell. To think that there are so many people that after this that I will never see again because they choose hell is a reality. I am not judging, don't get me wrong. I am just saying that this world is great, if you make it that way. But this world, well.. it isn't IT. It is a stepping stone to where we will all meet again. If God didn't take everything that mattered to me once, I probably never would have entered the gates of life forever. For now, I give to the Lord here on earth. And that is why I am blessed, with my binoculars. I could never have seen what I do now without them. I have been very fortunate in my life.
