Remember this Thanksgiving, that God saw you hungry & created McDonalds,
Wendy’s, and Dairy Queen.

He saw you thirsty and created milk, Diet Coke, coffee and water.

God saw you in the dark and created light.

And God saw you without a good looking, intelligent, charming yet humble
friend, and so He created ME
