I just received my water bill from the town. I don’t think much about this bill. It is not a major drain on my finances. Nonetheless, I would like all bills to be lower. However, today for some reason I thought about this bill. If you know me you know that I am not a handy person. By this I mean I don’t do many household repairs and would find myself in great trouble if I was on my own in life. Hence the water bill.
I don’t know what I would do if I had to dig my own well and find water. I have some ideas but I probably would struggle getting a good supply of water on my own. As I reflect on this thought I realize again that so much of my life is dependent on others. Daily I take from those who enhance my life in many ways. Imagine water with enough pressure to flow in my house whenever I need or want it. What a deal and when I wrote the check out I didn’t even write thanks on it.
I want today to be more thankful and less complaining. I had better get asking God to help me with this one.
