Do Something

I love when people talk about what they are passionate about. What stirs their hearts & leads them to more of Jesus. I love hearing about God using normal everyday people to do big things. And I love that God created us all uniquely to have passions about different things. To impact all the people. We are all called to different spaces of life. Some into orphan care, that's one that gets my heart going. Some into fighting for freedom which I also love that one. Some for missions. And to feed the hungry. To care for widows. And mentor the most most "difficult" teens. Some to stay home & raise their babies. Some to encourage. Whatever your gift, use it. Use it for Jesus. We are not to just go through this life untouched. But to be raw & ready to let Jesus move us to go deeper. 


That's why I love this song by Matthew West. He created YOU to do something. To make a difference in the things that make you angry. The things that explode your heart. 

 "Live simply so others can simply live." -Mother Teresa 

 I want to know, what is that thing you are passionate about?

We are not part of his story and he is not part of ours

"Write drunk; edit sober" -Ernest Hemingway I've never actually attempted this, but tonight I am. I've had my wine and if you know me at all it doesn't take much to get my lightheaded & giggly. I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
