GO
SEE. See my room? No you DO NOT want to see that disaster. I just cannot keep it clean. I am missing some kind of domestic gene these days. What is weird is my desk/work area at work is spotless…
The sad thing is I have no excuses other than exhaustion and busyness. I have no kids. I don’t even have a husband. I have 2 tabby cats that like to sit on messes.
SEE the mess that is Operation Christmas Child? 8 little kids in Madagascar received that mess that came from the house that Milo supervised. It came from a place full of love and joy.
I guess everyone is not blessed with the domestic gene but I know for a fact that from this house comes a lot of love and joy for our Faith. Love and shelter and food that not everyone receives. As the temperatures dropped this week I saw the homeless men and women on the streets. I saw them while I drove home last night from church. I was sad for them and cold for them. I said a prayer for them. It’s impossible to help everyone and everything you see but for now I will pray for each and every person I see.
I know my prayers make a difference no matter what people say. I hear stories of my prayers making a difference every day. Babies being born after years of infertility, cancer disappearing, family members coming home, and people surviving each day that we call life.
STOP
Wow Beth Anne, I can relate! I’m by no means a perfect home keeper (even before family) and that’s okay with me. I figure it goes along with being the creative type…projects always in progress & taking priority.
But seriously, I love that you have eyes open to see the hurting around you. That in Christ working in you. I pray He shows you comfort and joy through your prayers and that He fills you life with such tender care. Amen.

YES! Just the other day I told my mom I have way too many projects going on! She just laughed..the next day she started a new project…I guess that is where I get it from 🙂
Amen! Your prayers DO make a difference! From one intercessor to another, pray on my friend! Don’t ever stop!
We are neighbors over at Lisa Jo’s today! So glad I stopped by!

I was not born with that domestic gene either. I can fake it from time to time but not as often as my hubby would like me to, I’m sure. My daughter and I headed the OCC shoebox project at our church this year and our family room was such a mess from it all. You keep making messes and give to others.
