So for the past few days at work I have had many come through my check out line that has had very unpredictable things to take place and happen in their lives..one older gentleman came through and had a candy bar and he says to me I’ll take that back..I don’t want my wife to know that I ate this..so I laughed and I said well maybe you should take one home to your wife..and he says to me no she doesn’t need any..laughing a bit but then he comes back and he says I’m just pulling your leg..my wife had a stroke a few months back and she is in the nursing home..she can’t talk now..and she can’t use her left arm..so at that moment my heart just hurt for him..and he says I spend my days and my nights there for I don’t want to leave her..then another man came through the line and he is a preacher..and I have known him and his wife for many years they are wonderful people..so I see him and I say I don’t think I’ve ever seen you without your wife..please tell her hello for me..and he says my wife passed away a year ago from cancer..and yet once again my heart broke for him..for they were so very close..then there was this lady that came through my line and she had on a beautiful watch and I said to her your watch is lovely..and she said thank you…my terrific husband bought it for me..he did a great job..and she said he passed a way about 5 years ago unexpectedly..and she begin to get tears in her eyes just speaking of him..so I as well I begin to have my heart hurt so badly for her..she said death is such a cruel thing..never take your loved ones for granted..I could go on and on about a few more stories that I have heard from so many these last few days..but the point of the stories is to say that guys life is so short..please I pray that none of us ever forget that..and that we do our best to show and tell our loved ones and daily show and tell them that we love them..for I as well faced that heart break of losing my dad back in February and it is not a fun thing to face or ever have to go through..but we all know that we will face these things in life..for the bible says that it is appointed unto man to die..Hebrews 9:27…and we never know when or even how but we know that it will happen..so make sure to get your life right first and foremost with Jesus…and then make sure to get your heart right with others..and have no ought with anyone..always do what needs to be done..for I would give anything to have my dad back..for there was so much I wanted to ask him..but that will never come to me..so if your needing to ask something to someone..go ahead and ask them..if your needing to forgive someone then forgive them..really and truly whatever it is that you need to be fixed and mended with you and your relationships I pray your bold and you just do it..for life happens and it happens pretty quickly to say the least..as I well I seen a man yesterday in the store and I had worked with his wife many years ago..and as well we all attended church together..and he begins to tell me that she is very sick, that they give her only a few months to live..she has cancer..she as well has 3 children all under the age of 18 and their still at home..she hasn’t ate for weeks now..there’s nothing else they can do for her..so yes my heart broke for them..for that is the saddest thing..see we all kind of think that we have it really bad until the Lord places people and situations in front of you and you see and hear first hand the heartaches that others are dealing with and going through..it does honestly to goodness make you appreciate just a little more of your life..and it gives you a whole new meaning of how to deal with others..for everyone yet once again guys that you’ll ever meet in all of your life is fighting some kind of battle..so let us all be kinder than necessary..and let us all remember to pray for the sick..to pray for the ones whose hearts are broken from the loss that they are dealing with..and to be thankful for your life..and honestly to  goodness to quit complaining..so let us reach out to everyone with love..for we all need love..and we all need yet once again each other..so be that friend..be that help…be that prayer warrior..and be all that you can be for the Lord our God..shining and living your life for Him and Him alone..In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
