pb & j epiphany

so i was just lying in bed, trying to sleep, when all of sudden all i could think about was a PB and J sandwich. i thought about how I was going to make 4 for lunch tomorrow. I was so hungry. So I got up out of bed and well made myself a peanut butter and raspberry jam sandwich. I was munching it down, when all of a sudden I thought, "Boy I sure am blessed to be able to get up and make what I wanted." I mean more than half the world doesn't have that luxury. Even kids in NA. I mean PB & J may be all that they have to eat. I'm blessed. If you can look in your pantry or fridge and have more to choose from than PB & J and KD, then you are blessed.
I love how things like that are pounded into us for as long as we can remember but it takes something really getting us for it to hit home. I guess that God isn't as absent as I thought he was.
