After an amazingly beautiful full moon Sunday the Lord has blessed me with a bright clear Monday morning! I sat outside with my coffee my sprouty pups which are far too old to be sprouty and watched the birds fly back and forth. The sunrise being painted before my eyes was filled with bright orange and pink, the rising sun actually stung my eyes. How I treasure these few moments of peace before I start my day in the working world.
It quite a transformation moving from the splendor of my back porch to the frustration of the roadways. Watching the other cars drive by and no one is smiling. Either their ears are plastered to cell phones or their faces seem stone cold, emotionless. How sad, how very sad that all of these people going somewhere and none of them appear to be happy about it. They don't even appear to be happy about being alive or having the ability to drive themselves somewhere, anywhere.
It appears to me that we need to spend a bit more time on counting our blessings. God has given us life. Let us all rejoice in the little things.
About Me
- BrokenButLoved
- My daugther passed away on September 1, 2007, the day after her 22nd birthday from an accidental overdose of heroin. She battled her addiction for eight years and suffered from mental health issues. I miss her with all my heart... In October 2008 God called me into action and I am reaching out to those with addiction issues. My dream is to grow BrokenButLoved substancially over the next several years. I know this is my calling. To share our tragic story and give hope to others. I am currently in the process of writing a book on our experiences. I feel so blessed to know Christ because I know my daughter is free from pain, scarless and in the joyous prescence of the Lord.
