Selfish

I get so selfish sometimes and get involved in my own little pity parties. However this story reminded me this week of how blessed I am and just how good I really have it right now in my life.

A few days ago a former co-worker of mine sent out a prayer request for a family that she knew that lives in our area. I opened the e-mail to find the most heart wrenching story I've ever read. Yet, they are hanging on somehow to the hope that the Lord has a reason behind their ordeal.

You can go hear to read the story of the Morgan family. They are a family of five who have lost both the mother and youngest son out of the family this week to cancer.

It's times like these that you have to hope that there really is a God who really is control and knows what's best...and pray that he holds this family close.

Thank you for sharing this Christy.
I read that blog until I was crying so much I couldn't read any more. That family's story definitely makes you realize what is important, and what is not. Bless them all, and I will be praying for them all.
