I sat down intending to blog about our home. We moved one year ago today. I remember sitting out front the night before our closing just looking at our new home. Just one year later and I've lost much of the appreciation for it. That ashames me and I plan to change that.
I've decided that it is not what I should blog about though. While I've been thinking about how I've neglected this gift God has bestowed on us there are others out there hurting.
In this blog there is a tribute to a beautiful baby named Lily that never had the chance to hear her Momma's voice outside of the womb. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Vanderclan/160499/#c299572
I just read a prayer request for four young soldiers injured protecting my very lively hood. They are too injured to even come home to receive proper medical care.
My sister in law and brother and law just got back from Africa. There is so much pain and suffering. For such a minimal inconvenience we could make such a lasting improvement in the lives of these people created in God's image, but do we? http://www.bloodwatermission.com
I can't even tell you how selfish I feel. What has been on my mind all night? What have I been thinking about? I've been thinking about the past year and how much I would change if I had it to do all over again. What are other people thinking about? What are others hurting about? I need to be thinking about them and praying for them.
What are you thinking about? |
