BEFORE we can BECOME A BLESSING for others=We must
RECOGNIZE=that God has=
BLESSED all of us FIRST=We have RECEIVED COUNTLESS BLESSINGS=From
the Holy Father=
God and Jesus=A roof over our head=Food on the table=and
some of us=EVEN WEALTH=But
The MOST IMPORTANT BLESSINGS we=have received are=Life=are
Faith=and are HOPE
AND LOVE=as well as JOY and peace=FAMILY AND FRIENDS=and

ENOUGH of material blessings=To keep on getting by=Even
