Geesh. All I needed to do was spend 10 minutes reading Katie and Renees blogs and I am no longer depressed or feeling bad for myself. I mean what in the world do I have to complain about. Sure, Im stuck in a hospital bed and have to dump my pee into a jar every time I go (quite funny really) but I also have a bed, have food to eat, have a restroom to use, and have air conditioning. These women are serving over in Uganda and work with people who have nothing and who are literally starving! Click on Renee's blog link and see the starving children that she helps nourish back to health. Its eye opening. Click on Katie's blog and see all of the children that she mothers and lets into her home. She the people in the villages around her that she takes care of when they are hurt (even though she has no medical experience) Every time I read their blogs its like the Lord is slapping me in the face. I am so grateful for it every time. It brings me back to the attitude I know I need. It reminds me of how blessed I am and it also reminds me that I need to step up and not just live for myself and my family. Who cares that I'm stuck in a hospital room. Thats nothing! It's pretty much pathetic to even start feeling bad for myself. At then end of this hospital stay, I get to bring home a precious little boy. I am blessed, and these blogs have just reminded me that I need to use the blessings that have been given to me, and bless others. So, while I will probably post a ton more (out of boredom) I will not longer be complaining. God is good.
