Prayerful

Have you ever had one of those days where your heart is so heavy that you just want to explode? Today is one of those days. There is so much I am praying for these days. Marriages, friends, Japan, my family, etc. I find myself praying constantly while putting a load of laundry in, folding laundry, driving to pick-up Landon from school and so forth. As I turn on the television it's on the situation in Japan. They showed so many families just sitting in a big warehouse looking shelter. No connection to the outside world. Some families wondering if a family member is still alive and some who haven't had the chance to tell their families they are okay. They showed an older couple making chopsticks to give to people to eat with. People were getting balls of steamed rice to eat. Steamed rice! I would be so hungry ten minutes later! It brought to my mind about Jesus feeding the five thousand. They had five loaves of bread and two fish. All of them ate and were SATISFIED. Today I am choosing to be satisfied. Satisfied in what the Lord has given me. I can't believe how much I have been blessed with. Take time and be satisfied today. I promise you....it's a great and fulfilling feeling.
