The Reason???

Was out and about with the hubby yesterday trying to get all the loose end tied up. I think we did it. Shopping is fun but when it is with a whole lot of people who don't know what they want or don't want to be there at all...well frustrations sets in.
We had a plan and we had the list and off we went. I think it was a success. The people who wear pj bottoms out in the public is widespread. I think we seen every walk of life. For the most part the cashiers where cheery but I think alot of that had to do with Joe. He somehow has a way of making one smile. It could be a comment or one of his all time" funny jokes." It was good though. I think we needed one on one time to connect. It was nice to come home and just be. Today will begin with a walk with the Lord and then wrap it all up.
Next is the grocery shopping. I am hoping to get that in today. Work for the next two days and then relax well I hope for that. I pray that the kids are not disappointed. It gets harder as they get older. Thankful for the "stuff" we can provide and hopeful that it is not what they base their life on!

Realization

Life is hard, we know that is true. But what is truly hard is seeing how broken some really are. I deal with people all day long and lately I feel like the bartender. So many out there that need a ear to hear them. So many that need just a seed. I pray that I am carrier of the Good New that I know to be true. I pray that through me that they receiver a bit of peace. I try to become maybe that one who really does care. If only for a brief moment.
Life is challenging. One moment at a time is all we can ask for. Some times picking up one's cross for a second can make that journey bearable. I know that there have been many times that life was too much for me and someone always stepped in.
Realizing that maybe I do do good sometimes. I do realize that life is a gift and not a given right.
Waking today and thankful for life!
