When today seems to be too much

Today the dishes in the sink can wait until after my first cup. French vanilla this morning. I need to just sit for a few minutes. Let lesser things wait for now. This past year has been a tough year, no secret there. It seems when all in right for the moment in your life, something else has to be wrong. A good good friend of mine has had a bad few months.. Tragic to say he least. And while I'm not here to give you the grimey details and let's be honest what kind of friend wOuld I be, I can say, she's had the kind of year or even life that you can only read in books. She has worries that keep you up at ight and rob you of the one of the few things you Need to get through a bad moment: sleep.

Doesn't your heart break when you can't fix hurt? We can fill our prayers with thoughts for them, but how do you let them know your here for them when they need it? It seems impossible sometimes doesn't it? I guess you let your prayers do the work. But then shouldn't you act on them too?

I think sometimes when you seem to be living a grueling day to day, you start feeling very worthless. When every breath you take seems like work, you want to stay in bed. You want not to feel anything at all if it can't be releif.

I guess you gotta let your friends- whoever you know is hurting- you love them. And yOu can't just tell them once. Tell them as much as they need it. Pray they get through this day. Pray that the next day will bring them relief. Pray they hold on until the prayers kick in. Pray they can just have one. Decent. Sleep.
