Feeling Low

Yesterday was a bad day.  I wonder, is it just me or when you begin to have a bad day--does it seem like it just continues to go downhill?  Many little things happened that turned my bad day into a REALLY bad day and in turn my attitude turned sour which in turn probably caused people in my family to also have a bad day.  <sigh>

While nothing "bad" has happened today, I still feel low b/c yesterday was bad and I didn't handle it well.  <sigh again> 

Perspective

This world is not about me and my experiences.  This world is about God and His kingdom.  Lord help me to keep life in perspective.

Wish I Knew...

How can you so intensely care about people you don't know?  Why do I have such a burden for faces that I have yet to meet?  Why has God placed this burden on my heart, but has yet to show me what to do with what I feel?

Reading blogs about others working in Haiti, selling Haitian jewelry for people I don't know, and in general hearing the word "Haiti" pop up several times of day--all cause my heart to ache.  Part of me wants to just shut the door and walk away.  But God won't let me.

So I wait.  Impatiently today.  Frustrated.  Heart heavy.  Mind confused.
