Everyone has a Story
Not everyone has someone who will hear it
Everyone you come in contact with during your
Everydaywalkingaroundlife
Has a Story
And they are searching for someone to hear it
Someone to really listen
Someone to take the time to
Stop
Listen
Love
Many times I’ve sat with a grandchild in my lap
Listening to the same story
Over and over again
Listening as if for the very first time
Or visiting with an elderly friend
And hearing again and again
The same story
I’m guilty of not listening too
My children will tell you of times
Multiple times
They would tell me something
And within moments
I would ask the same question
Because truth be told
I wasn’t listening
My brain was already a million miles away
Planning the next step in my already overloaded day
You know
Motherhood
Excuses aside
I truly hope my children felt
Heard
Acknowledged
Important
Because that’s what we all want
And we want to know that this Story
Our Story
Isn’t all there is to this life
That surely there is more
And that’s where we come in
Encouraging and reminding one another
That Jesus isn’t finished writing our Story
He wants much more for us
And through us
He wants us to share our Story of His Grace in our lives
So that others will know
There IS more
So today
As you go about your
Everydaywalkingaroundlife
Be sure to
Stop
Listen
Love
And Share
Your Story for His Glory
