Part 2: I'm so blessed

....While in isle 10 at Kroger, my BFF called me to say that her son was is in the hospital and awaiting surgery from a kidney stone blockage. This has been a week long ordeal and I could hear the stress and exhaustion in her voice. I stopped dead in my tracks and opened my heart. Lord, use me, to help this family. She proceeded to tell me how she had to push back her clients (she's a hair stylist) a few days so that she could be with her son. I could hear the concern and the discouragement telling me she had to find a way to get back to work before Christmas because that was how she was going to be able to get Christmas for her children. I'm thinking Christmas is only a few days away.....so again, I ask my Father, how can I help her? My family is healthy, my family has food to eat, my family will be together..Lord, I'm fine...my family will be fine.....Father, keep my eyes turned toward your compassion and love. Like you said Father, Love One Another and that I shall.
