Let me explain
Yesterday I was depressed. I only had about 5 hours sleep that night, the worst day at work, my hormones were kicking in reminding me once again how depressed I get that I can't make a baby, and then I had to cough up 50 bucks to pay for something totally stupid which sent me over the edge because we are trying to save every penny for our adoption.
Needless to say, tears were shed and thoughts immediately entered my head of, Why me ?
The pity party did not last long, it never dose.
After some encouragement from Jordan, fun family time, good food, and a trip to QT, all was once again well.
This morning when I woke and logged online to see what was happening with the world I came across this
I cried as I watched it and immediately had a few thoughts come to me. I so so so wish that I had the means to just hop on a plane to go help these people out. I would be there in a heartbeat if I could, I want to be there. Then I felt guilty for being so selfish and caught up in my own minuscule problems when so many of Gods children are without.
Yesterday I was crying over 50 bucks, really Julie!? It seems so silly now and rather embarrassing.
It was once again a humbling reminder to be thankful for all that I do have.
My thoughts and prayers are with the victims of this devastation.
And I do want to go on record and say, even though my problems pale in comparison to whats important in the world, I do have a testimony of God answering prayers. No matter how silly my trails may seem, I have a loving Heavenly Father who always takes the time to comfort me when needed, and teach me important life lessons.
