"Do you stop and remember?"

Click here to listen to Dr. Joey tell his story!

A friend told me recently about talking with another friend who was traveling. It seems that the other friend was in an airport, waiting to board a plane, and returning phone calls.

Well, as these two friends talk, all of a sudden, really loud music starts blaring over the intercom system.
"Hold on," the guy in the airport screams, "we’ll have to wait."

So my friend holds on. He can’t help but hear the music and soon recognizes it as the U.S. national anthem.

When the song finishes playing, the friend in the airport resumes the conversation, and says, "Sorry about that. Every day at 12noon they play that so we’ll stop and remember how blessed we are by freedom."

When was the last time you stopped and remembered how blessed you are? If you live in a free country, by freedom? Or, if you have good health, by that? Or, if you have love in your home, by family? And the list of blessings from God continues. So make a life today and stop and remember your blessings.
