until the ones that I have are broken, torn or no

appointments with God in which we introspect on all the
times we allowed ourselves to be overpowered by these
emotions and we must pray for strength, DAILY, to be remain

PERSPECTIVE
A man once went to see a doctor complaining of aches and
pains all over his body. “Doctor my whole body hurts me,”
he moaned. The doctor asked him to show exactly where
the pain was.
The man explained, “When I touch my shoulder, it hurts.
When I touch my back it hurts. When I touch my legs, they
hurt.”
The doctor did a thorough examination and told the man,
“Sir, there is nothing wrong with your body. Your finger is
broken. That is why it hurts wherever you touch. Get your
finger plastered, rest it for a couple of weeks and all of
your pains will disappear.”

pain. As we go through life “feeling” the world with our
fingers, if our finger is broken naturally we will experience
pain everywhere. But, we make the mistake of blaming
the external world for our ailments: “My job is over-taxing,
my husband is too demanding, my wife nags, my children
are disobedient, my in-laws don’t understand me, etc.
etc.” But if you look throughout the world you will be able
to find someone who has the same type of job but is calm,
or someone who has the same type of spouse but is happy,
