A few years ago my grandfather was admitted into the ICU unit in the hospital. I went to go visit him, but could only watch him through a glass box. I stood there crying, while he lay there with his eyes closed, barely alive. The nurse told him I was there. He opened his eyes, smiled ear to ear, and waved to me. That night he passed away. YLGMH.

One morning I came down to eat some breakfast when I heard my grandparents speaking to each other while eating. “You’re so smart.” My Grandma said. “Wanna know what the smartest thing I did? I married you.” My Grandpa replied. “And I was smart to say Yes.” Their everlasting love GMH

Today I went shopping and I saw a tall girl wearing a cropped, strapless top. As I got closer I noticed that her entire body was covered in ugly burn scars. She walked down the street, ignoring all who stared, smiling to herself. I feel guilty for covering up the stretch marks on my thighs. She GMH

I have an abusive father. Once my best friend saw my dad starting to hit me and he stood in front of me and took the beating for me. He ended up with a broken arm, nose, getting thrown down the stairs, and bruises everywhere. Then he told me he’d go through it every day if it meant I’d never go through it again. His LGMH

My daughter works hard to keep her grades up, keep a job, cook, clean, do volunteer work, and take care of my sick wife while I work. She never complains. She has a lunch packed for me daily, always with a thoughtful note included. She even gets up an hour early to have coffee with me. Her love GMH.

Years ago there was a terrible car accident. A 17 year old boy was driving when a drunk driver hit the passenger side of his car. Without thinking, he threw himself over his little sister in the passenger seat. She survived, he did not. Andrew, thank you for saving me. Your love and bravery GMH

NEED WASHING?
(Something my Mum just emailed me…)
A little girl had been shopping with her Mom in Woolies. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful red haired, freckle faced image of innocence.
It was pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so much in a hurry to hit the earth it has no time to flow down the spout.. We all stood there, under the awning, just...

Depression is not a choice. →
no-one-hears-before-i-disappear:
You do not choose to be depressed. Who on earth would choose it? Just because a person seems perfect on the outside, does not mean they don’t have “reason” to be depressed. They’re not just being dramatic or whining about their lives. It is something you can not control. If all you could feel was down, lethargic, hopeless, sad, etc. don’t you think you would...

I want to be free!
I want to be free from this pain.
Free from the confusion.
Free from this dark night of the soul.
Free from trying to find God because I’ve found Him!
Free from this life that I only know!

The Lie of Beauty
A blog that I found through a friend’s facebook - a very relevant post in today’s society! (http://justathoughtdevotionals.com/2012/01/21/the-lie-of-beauty/)
Judges 14:1, 3, ”Then Samson went down to Timnah and saw a woman in Timnah, one of the daughters of the Philistines… But Samson said to his father, ‘Get her for me, for she looks good to me.’“
I’m glad I’m not a woman. Now...
