FOCUS ON OTHERS
I had the blues because I had no shoes until upon the street I met a man who had no feet.–Denis Waitely
I find that when I am stuck or feeling sorry for myself I just need to reach out and help someone who is worse off than me. When I pray for someone to help, someone always shows up. This past weekend I was feeling sorry for myself. I went to church and prayed for God to bring someone for me to help. Alas, as I walked in to school this morning I was greeted by a tearful friend whose husband was just diagnosed with lung cancer. I hugged her and told her I was there for her. It took the focus off of ME and I was able to help someone else feel better.
One day at a time . . .
Allow me to be of service to others. I need them as much as they need me.
