Every Thing Is A Privilege
Author: siggyEvery thing is a privilege and it is so easy to take every privilege we have for granted until we lose it. I was so used to have the internet until our computer broke down. Now there were all kinds of things I could no longer do: for one I no longer had E Mail, something I use every day.
I did not have access to my stored files. I could no longer access the internet. All of this I took for granted when the truth was every thing I have is a privilege. Every thing is by grace.
There are so many other things that are privileges, simple things: like being able to type, talk, move. My aunt lost all those abilities when she had a severe stroke. Everything is a privilege and often we don’t understand that until we lose that privilege. Everything is by grace. And may I never forget that.
