Anthony Norvell reminds you to count what you already have: sight, hearing, a sound mind, an immortal soul that can know God. He argues that good deeds toward children, relatives, and friends return to you in ways you may never see, through God's promise of abundance.
Chapters
Stop for a moment and think how lucky you are. You have eyes that you can see the beauty of God's world. You have good hearing so you can listen to birdsong, the laughter of children, the music of great artists on radio and television and recordings. You have a sane mind that can enjoy the wonder of books and the art treasures of all ages. You possess an immortal soul that may know and love God and foresee the immortality promised God's loving children. Indeed, when you stop to count your blessings, do they not far outnumber the misfortunes of life? So maybe the good you have done for your children, your relatives, your friends, which does not seem to be repaid by them, is coming back to you through 100 other channels which you were not aware of until now.
