Let's think about our life. Have you got a complete family ? What have you done with them ? Do you always take a minute to thank God for bringing you into that family ? Have you been good to them ? Do you ever want to leave them ? Now, remember what they have done to you, and ask your deepest heart. Are you a good member of your family yet ?
Now, have you got any happiness during your life ? Is it easy tot take a breath ? Do you eat well ? Have you got any intelligence ? Have you tasted any bitterness in this life ? How many lesons you have learnt untill today ? God has been very kind to us, forgiving every mistakes we make, every minutes that we pass without remembering him. Have we been a good creature ? Only God and yourself know it.
There are many things we have in this life, just take some minutes to think and ask ourselves, do we deserve what we have got ? let's think it twice :). I bet, we have got more than we deserve. Love you all.

Oh yeah yes i do deserve what i have got.I guess so, Well really i don't think about it and i have never thought about it if you want to know the truth but i have thought about things which i don't deserve.It doesn't even matter well whether i think about it or not It is not like my thinking about it is gonna change anything but i do cherish the goodness and happiness that my life brings to me.

No not bad Not bad at all.I do, I do sometimes thin about what i have done and what i have got and in the end i come up to a conclusion that Life doesn't goes as per our aspirations Life is hard.There are many things which we deserve and don't have and many things which we do not deserve but get it.That is it Life is uncertain.

To all the questions that was asked, for me they are all right. I always thank god for the family I am right now and I think (or hope) I have been good to them too. I wouldn't trade none of family for anything in the world. My family always gives me great advice in almost everything. I think I already have what I think I deserve right now.

Its like they said (or at least my uncle), always spend time with your family as much as you can (especially your parents) before its too late (to the sky). Don't wait til the last minute to spend time with them because when they leave, and you start crying, its like, why are you crying now when you had a lot of chances to visit and spend time with them when they were still here. At least that's what my uncle said, lol.

wow those are a lot of things to ponder ...
but you know most people think they deserve more or deserve better.. its human nature..
why would we think at any time that we deserve bad luck ?
no one wants to think they are bad and deserve bad things ..
but we all think we are good and deserve good things :)

Hello kedves...:)
Yeah that's true. There are more to ponder about this life. Right, human nature, it is one of the gift from God. Just want to remind that sometimes we need to remember that we are nothing but only a human that can do nothing without his permit :).

Really none of actually deserve the wonderful things that we have in life. We are all imperfect and sin daily. But because Of God's undeserved kindness we are able to have a relationship with him. He has provided us with so many beautiful things that we can be thankful for. So many people take things for granted. It is important that we regularly reflect on our life and those in it that we are thankful for.

Yes his kindness really is amazing. I think that it is important to continously remind myself of these things. Life can be so hectic and I can get off track. But it's a great thing to be able to reflect on all the wonderful things and people I have in my life.

This is a great post. Not so much to discuss as you must have already covered everything but nevertheless a good post. Thanks for this good reminder, zaahro. We may think we never deserve another chance to live because of our mistakes or sins but if God believes we do deserve it then we have to claim it. After all, we are all here for HIM.
Amen.

I guess it is the simple things in life that we are most thankful for. Sometimes we even do not recognize the blessings because of their simplicity but at the end of the day, we just want to close our eyes and thank HIM for everything He has done to get us through the day. Or throughout our lifetime

I have a wonderful family, and I know that I am very lucky to be in the situation that I am in at the moment. There are so many people in this world who are not lucky enough to have as much as I do, and you have to understand this when thinking about how lucky you are in your own life. I do think that I deserve my family, because I like to give them just as much as they give me, which involves a lot of love and help whenever they should need me for anything. I also have a good job, and I am lucky and thankful for that as well because I know that a lot of people aren't in a very good financial situation at this moment in time.

What we have right now is God's choice of what we must have as of now. Some people look at it in a different prospective but if better things come along your way, you will realize why you didn't have it before. Perfect time is always God's time.

Nice contemplation.
I'm sure we have to do this periodically.
Just to remember that we're exist in this world not alone and/or by ourselves.
We've got things around us.
We've got people around us.
And we've got our Creator who always protect and guide us.
