Count your blessings

In the world today, many issues emerge to disturb the comfort of people in their various countries, making it difficult for them to enjoy the peace they deserve to have.

Countries are either engaged in war or contending with activities that are undermining peaceful glob­al existence.

The war between Ukraine and Russia, for example, is disturbing not only to the two countries but also to the world as a whole.

The war has affected the world in the sense that it has, for instance, forced the prices of goods to rise, making life unbearable to people across the world.

Also, many people have died as a result of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, while the dis­ease has also devastated economies.

Many people in the world today are facing very difficult times be­cause of the hard economic situation that has arisen as a result of the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandem­ic is not over yet, but to a large extent, it has been brought under control around the world.

In spite of it having been brought under control, its effects are still around.

This is why the world is still fight­ing against the negative effects of the pandemic.

The effects have been disastrous in many parts of the world, but life is still going on, so people should be grateful that they are still alive.

Here in Ghana, the country is still enjoying the peace it needs. People are able to go about their duties with ease.

Our neighbouring states have been attacked by terrorists, but Ghana has been free from such attacks.

Ghanaians must therefore be grateful for their blessings and count them one by one, showing gratitude to God and the government.
