Wish I could....

but, common sense prevails. I sure have an interesting blog, this has been one day! I could make you laugh, make you thankful and if your at all sympathetic, you might say a prayer for me....but, I won't. It is to deeply personal, girl talk, humiliating & humbling to share, unlike some people *coughFaceBookcough*, I realize the internet is not a place to discuss everything that happens in your life!


On a way more serious note, I was in a place today and over heard the most heartbreaking story. This summer a 6 yr old boy died in a drowning accident. ( story Below)

 His mother was in the place I was at, it was heartbreaking. She was sobbing and a lady was asking her if she was okay and she just poured out this story. She said their ac was broke and it was so hot, the kids were begging to go swimming so she let them go swimming in the River. She said she had never let him go off without her before. I don't know what or how it happened.  Obviously, I don't know only God knows what happened but,  if you all would remember this mother in your prayers and this little boys sister. I can't imagine the guilt and the hurt they are living with. It was just heartbreaking to see her. I wanted to go to her and  put my arms around her and hold her and pray for her, I don't even know if I could have gotten words out, I just wanted to cry with her and for her loss, she was emotionally.... just raw is the only way I could describe it. Please just pray for her and the 10 yr old sister who was with him. 

Kiss those you love tonight, and say an extra prayer of Thanks for another day, another precious gift of Life.

  1. Wow! That makes me raw with emotion too! I told Bro. Bennie that I often didn't know what to say to people who were hurting. He said "That's OK just cry with them, that's better than words most of the time."
