Word prompt--LONGING
Five minutes to free-write about it
-------------------------------------------------------
At the moment, what I am most longing for is a change in the weather. I long to be out and about again without fear of slipping on ice or being blown over by the wind.
On the other hand, I am grateful to have a warm apartment to shelter in, food in the pantry and freezer, and a comfortable bed to sleep in.
My heart and prayers go out to the homeless who have to face the elements without any of these basic blessings I too often take for granted. What to me is just a temporary inconvenience can pose life threatening risks to many of them. Thinking of that can quickly put things in their proper perspective.
You are so right! We have a WARM shelter here, and the churches will take turn housing them, but there are too many.
ReplyDeletePraying for those without shelter, both humans and animals 🙏 😢 💔 ❤️
ReplyDeleteIt is -18 Celsius here in Montreal today and is supposed to be -25 tonight.
ReplyDeleteI feel exactly the same. You're so right, we have so much to be thankful for with warm houses!
