Actions Speak Volumes

 Day by day I have my moments, when I want to call the adoption agency and ask, "Well?" I know it is all in "due time" As we eagerly wait and fill my time with cleaning, trying to work on the house, think of baby stuff we might need, and write. I haven't been doing the best at blogging, but that is because after I write I let it set in the waiting Zone! I always try to sit on something before I publish it, unless it's a easy write like today's blog. My heart has be saddened for those in need by recent events in West and Boston. Thinking I often feel emotions of deep sympathy for those who have lost loved ones. Then I remember those helping and it make me proud to be a Texan. Many friends' loved ones have gone to help and that fills my heart with a different emotions. It also reminds me that time is precious and to never forget to share the love of the Lord with all, not just by words but actions. Words are great, but when you show and become an example it speaks volumes not just an introduction.  These recent horrific events remind me, to be patient, to be still and listen to his words.  I hope one day when my child is in my arms I can be an example and my goal is to show them that kindness in society does matter. Just when you turn on the t.v to see another dark episode of the latest criminal show on t.v, remember there are moments in our world when a man who just ran 26.2 miles keeps running to save others at the hospital or the first fireman on the scene that went to put out a fire, only for it to be a huge explosion that took out half a town.  The town of West is sticking together and sharing with Americans all over that helping your neighbor is far important than saving your personal belongings. Donation chains flooded Facebook immediately after this tragic explosion. I'm blessed beyond words that people all over the state are reaching out. we will continue to pray for the communities of West and Boston. May their grace be shared by all as they get through the future days.
