Heart Cry

This weekend I did the usual laundry and had some play time with my little princesses. They sat in the living room watching the Little People animals slide down and fall from a tree. The background noise of Aladdin was the backdrop to our peaceful afternoon.

My mind wandered to the Middle East Crisis. I know that the perspectives are varied and some heated, yet I know that losses have occured on both sides. Mothers have lost their children, children have lost their parents, husbands have lost their wives, and sisters their siblings. My heart hurts for the pain that inflicts their lives. Not only today, yesterday, but for the many years of happenings. For as long as I can remember there has been some conflict, tension, occurance, etc.

To your hurt and loss I offer my tears and heart cry. May God grant us the wisdom to difuse the situation, may he lead those in power to put aside private agendas.

Trinity and Arianna slept last night tucked away in their cozy beds. Peaceful, quiet, resting undisturbed. I wish this for you, our hurting brothers, a safe place for you and your children.
