Just thinking today of the stresses we all carry....the things that just get on our nerves...the mom who looks haggard, the girl or guy who walks with their head down, or the opposite of that...body at an angry "make my day" pose...we all go through something, we are all IN something at some time....we trust God or...we don't...
Today, I am thinking it's tough the be the one carrying the thing...the thing that has hold of you somehow some way, the worry...the stress of letting go, or letting someone make mistakes. That is tough to sit back and watch.
My heart aches today, somewhere inside me is the desire to fix it all. My life certainly is not one that I would recommend anyone try to copy...but for some reason, maybe the mother in me, I want to help people heal.
I don't always see the good side of people, I am quick to judge, so this little note is a reminder to me. When I see...people who look angry, people who are doing wrong things, people who live better, or not as well as me....people who think they have it all....I have to do the thing that is toughest for me....let go. Love them with Gods heart, see them with His eyes...
and maybe ... take a look at their shoes and dare to walk a little in in them.
1 John 4:8
New International Version
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
