Some thoughts (text only)

I live in a bubble. There is no real pain in this bubble of mine. I have not really known heartache, either. I have a Man who loves me dearly. He would give up anything (even food) to make sure the girls and I are getting what we need. I have two beautiful girls who, while sometimes drive me to insanity, are the other loves of my life. I don't know what I would do without these three God- sent humans in my life.

I have wonderful friends. Some don't know what they are doing in life , some traveling the world finding themselves , many serving God with their lives, and where they are (that is everyone else). Somehow, that have convinced me that they love me and appreciate me.

I have sisters - everywhere, really. One is in England (soon returning to the US), I am actually living in the same state - just an hour away from the other one. One in Israel, one finding herself somewhere between Arkansas, Louisiana, and Washington...many more, everywhere!

So, now to the point of this post. There are people out there that are hurting, and I can't do anything about it! If you take a gander over at the left of the screen to my Favorite Places, there are two blogs that grip my heart and cause me to say, "I don't understand, God!" Bring the Rain (audreycaroline.blogspot.com) is about a woman who found out that her Baby would not survive outside the womb. The blog is her avenue of healing, basically. Confessions of a CF Husband (cfhusband.blogspot.com) is the remarkable story of Nate and Tricia, and all they have been through. Please check out these two blogs. I promise, they will give you a new perspective of God, and you will see things without the rose colored glasses we are so fond of!

Thanks for reading. I guess today I needed the reminder that "No where on my birth certificate does it say Holy Spirit."
