I've never made a fortune and
it's probably too late now. But I don't worry about that much, I'm happy anyhow.
As
I go along life's journey, I'm reaping better than I sowed. I'm drinking from
my saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed.
Ain't got a lot of riches. Sometimes
the going gets rough. But I got kids that love me, that makes me rich enough.
I
just thank God for His blessings, and the mercy He has bestowed. I'm drinking
from my saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed.
I remember times when things
went wrong and my faith got a little thin. But then all at once the dark clouds
broke and the old sun broke through again.
So Lord, help me not to gripe about
the tough rows I have hoed. I'm drinking from my saucer 'cause my cup has
overflowed.
If God gives me strength and courage, when the way gets steep
and rough, I won't ask for other blessings, I'm already blessed enough. And
may I never be too busy to help another bear his load. Then I'll keep drinking
from my saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed. author:unknown
****** When
I was a kid, I would sit and watch my daddy drink from a saucer. Some would
say "that's just not good manners!" If he was living today, I know
what I would be doing right now! I would be sitting down and having a saucer
of coffee with my daddy! And we would be saying, "we're drinking from
our saucers 'cause our cups have overflowed!" Happy Father's Day to
all fathers near and far! from Linda
