It's amazing the way your heartstrings can be tugged on when you start thinking about all the horrible things going on in the world. The old saying, "Out of sight, out of mind" is true. If I am not seeing pictures of other countries, and the starving children and adults, I don't always think about it. But thankfully I am given constant reminders of the people who are in need.
The thing that always goes through my mind is that I so desperately want to help, but sometimes I just don't know how. I am also thankful that I am surrounded with avenues that will point me in the right direction for being able to help these dying, hurting multitudes.
There have been times when I feel as if I am the only person in the world who cares enough to want to make a difference. But I am glad to have wonderful people in my life that I know have some of the same concerns about the world as I do.
This morning my heart strings have again been tugged on. My ears hear t
he silent screams. And my soul cries for all of the unseen tears that are shed.
