This Christmas I woke up sicker than I've been in a long time. I had the stomach bug a few days ago and I thought that was bad, but this was even worse. A terrible head cold and sore throat that just increased and sent me to my room. I laid in bed and listened to the children play with their new toys and blew my nose. When it came time to leave and join the family at my parents, I sent the family on without me. I was miserable.
I had prayed, slept and tried to read and even watch a movie earlier in the day. As the dinner hour drew nearer I pulled up Netflix and looked for something decent to watch. After turning off two strikes, I found Unconditional. It's a movie of new hope after the end of a rope. It is about love and helping others. It's about children. It reminded me of who I am.
I prayed, as I have so many times before, '' Lord, help me fulfill the destiny you have for me. Help me make a difference in people's lives. ''
He said, ''I will. You were made with purpose. I will bring them. For now, just love the ones you have. ''
