What Happens in Heaven — a circular letter

This is one of the nicest emails I have seen and it is so true:

I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was show­ing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a large work­room filled with angels.

My angel guide stopped in front of the first sec­tion and said, “This is the Receiv­ing Sec­tion. Here, all peti­tions to God said in prayer are received.” I looked around in this area, and it was ter­ri­bly busy with so many angels sort­ing out peti­tions writ­ten on volu­mi­nous paper sheets and scraps from peo­ple all over the world. Then we moved on down a long cor­ri­dor until we reached the sec­ond section.

The angel then said to me, “This is the Pack­ag­ing and Deliv­ery Sec­tion. Here, the graces and bless­ings the peo­ple asked for are processed and deliv­ered to the liv­ing per­sons who asked for them.”

I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels work­ing hard at that sta­tion, since so many bless­ings had been requested and were being pack­aged for deliv­ery to Earth.

Finally at the far­thest end of the long cor­ri­dor we stopped at the door of a very small sta­tion. To my great sur­prise, only one angel was seated there, idly doing noth­ing. “This is the Aknowl­edg­ment Sec­tion,” my angel friend qui­etly admit­ted to me. He seemed embar­rassed “How is it that? There’s no work going on here?” I asked.

So sad,” the angel sighed. “After peo­ple receive the bless­ings that they asked for, very few send back acknowledgments.

How does one acknowl­edge God’s bless­ings?” I asked.

Sim­ple,” the angel answered. “Just say, “Thank you, Lord.”

What bless­ings should they acknowl­edge?” I asked.

If you have food in the refrig­er­a­tor, clothes on your back, a roof over­head and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. “If you have money in the bank, in your wal­let, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealthy.

And if you get this on your own com­puter, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity.”

Also…

If you woke up this morn­ing with more health than ill­ness… you are more blessed than the many who will not even sur­vive this day.

If you have never expe­ri­enced the fear in bat­tle, the lone­li­ness of impris­on­ment, the agony of tor­ture, or the pangs of star­va­tion… you are ahead of 700 mil­lion peo­ple in the world.

If you can attend a church meet­ing with­out the fear of harass­ment, arrest, tor­ture or death you are envied by, and more blessed than, three bil­lion peo­ple in the world.

If your par­ents are still alive and still mar­ried… you are very rare.

If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you’re unique to all those in doubt and despair.”

Ok, what now? How can I start?

If you can read this mes­sage, you just received a dou­ble bless­ing in that some­one was think­ing of you as very spe­cial and you are more blessed than over two bil­lion peo­ple in the world who can­not read at all.

Have a good day, count your bless­ings, and if you want, pass this along to remind every­one else how blessed we all are.

Attn: Acknowl­edge Dept.: Thank You Lord! “Thank you Lord, for giv­ing me the abil­ity to share this mes­sage and for giv­ing me so many won­der­ful peo­ple to share it with”.
