"another one bites the dust"....yes another day has come and is quickly coming to a close! It has been a bit of a lazy day for me, some days I do not even feel like getting up and out, my bones are aching, and my joints scream each time I bend them! I would say my lupus is telling me to take a break, to lay it down and rest a bit! So I heeded the call and did just what my body was telling me today:)
I pray that each of you had a wonderful day, I pray that any problems you may be having were a little less today, that you see a light at the end of the tunnel and that you know that God is with you in each facet in your life and he wants only good for you! Trust and believe, hold tight to your faith and don't let negative overcome positive!
Let us continue to pray for those in need, for the ones suffering loss of a loved one, for all of the new babies being born, for those struggling with addiction, with financial problems, with health problems, for those who are rehabbing and for those who see darkness and have forgotten how the light looks. If you see someone in need of a friend, be one, if you see someone in need of a shoulder be one, if you see someone in need of a smile, give one! We can make a difference if only we use our heart!
Starfish
As the old man walked down a Spanish beach at dawn, he saw ahead of him what he thought to be a dancer. The young man was running across the sand, rhythmically bending down to pick up a stranded starfish and throw it far into the sea.
The old man gazed in wonder as the young soul again and again threw the small starfish from the sand into the water. The old man approached him and asked why he spent so much energy doing what seemed a waste of time. The young man explained that the stranded starfish would die if left until the morning sun.
"But there are thousands of miles of beach, and miles and miles of starfish. How can your effort make any difference?"
The young man looked down at the small starfish in his hand, and as he threw it to safety in the sea, said, "It makes a difference to this one!"
Don't let a day pass without paying it forward, it costs nothing to be kind to others:) I love you all and pray for you each and every day:) Peace be with you!
