An Inspirational Poem?

I was thinking of a funny sticker that my former boss at a Christain preshool had stuck to the mirror in the staff bathroom. It read "I'm too Blessed to be Stressed" beside a palm tree reminicent of some tropical getaway, I suppose.

Aaron and I toss the phrase around jokingly, especially after we saw it printed in large letters on the front of a t-shirt. I know, we're bad. Ok, maybe there is a tad bit of truth in the phrase but something about it rubs me the wrong way.

My suscpicions were confirmed when I stumbled upon this "inspirational poem" bearing the same title with an added bonus I'm Too Blessed to be Stressed, Too Anointed to be Disappointed.

True, it is awesome to place trust in God and give thanks to Him in everything...I just can't buy the part about refusing to be sad or to cry, or to be disappionted. Oh well I'm sure I'm misled in a lot of ways too...just thought it was kinda funny.

It's from a church up near a Taco Bell in Glendale.
