Eagle, don't forget you are one of God's children too. He wants to meet your needs as well as those of your brothers and sisters in Christ.

He is meeting your needs to be generous by graciously allowing you to meet the needs of others. Now He is recharging you. He is allowing you to rest while you are infused with new energy to not only care for others, but for yourself as well.

When you are rested and renewed, your light will shine even brighter. As you always have, you will light up even the darkest corner.

Thanks Smile. Your words reminded me of a song I've heard Amy Grant sing. It was written by Beth Nielsen Chapman and reminds me how each of us CAN make a difference, no matter how small our contribution seems at the time.


Here under heaven's eyes
Down under paradise
Sometimes it seems like we're so small.
Here on the shores that reach into infinity.
How could we matter that much at all?
Would it be enough
If each of us would give our love?

Like sand on a mountain
Rain on a fountain
Shade on a shadow
A breeze in this tornado
Just do what you can.
Clap with one hand
And Shine all your light in the sun

We live to learn to love.
Oh, mercy from above,
Amazing Grace, like rain, comes falling down
We sing our hearts to you
Our song of gratitude
The voice of every soul, how sweet the sound.
We can only trust
All our prayers will add up

Like sand on a mountain
Rain on a fountain
Shade on a shadow
A breeze in this tornado
Just do what you can.
Clap with one hand
And shine all your light in the sun
Would it be enough
If each of us would give our love?

Like sand on a mountain
Rain on a fountain
Shade on a shadow
A breeze in this tornado
Just do what you can.
Clap with one hand
And shine all your light in the sun
