A Special Friendship, Started In China

How cool is it that God has given these two little girls the opportunity to keep their special friendship alive in the United States. They were both adopted by two different families 900 miles apart, but only 30 miles apart from Grandma and Grandpa Whitt.

The Curds were gracious host to our family and our girls had so much fun. As we drove off from a fun night with the Curd's, Caeleigh says," I want to be with Oakley all the time," Then this morning when I was unloading my camera. she saw Oakley's picture and kissed my camera so gently. It was so precious. Two little girls, best friends in China, still able to maintain that special bond.

Interesting Reading

I read this on another blog and it really spoke to me and the sin inside of me. Litany of Humility by - Rafael Cardinal Merry del Val and began to read:

O Jesus, meek and humble of heart, hear me.

From the desire of being esteemed,
deliver me, Jesus.

From the desire of being loved,
From the desire of being extolled,
From the desire of being honored,
From the desire of being praised,
From the desire of being preferred to others,
From the desire of being consulted,
From the desire of being approved,

From the fear of being humiliated,
deliver me, Jesus.
From the fear of being despised,
From the fear of suffering rebukes,
From the fear of being calumniated (slandered or gossiped about),
From the fear of being forgotten,
From the fear of being ridiculed,
From the fear of being wronged,
From the fear of being suspected,

That others may be loved more than I,
Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.
That others may be esteemed more than I,
That in the opinion of the world,
others may increase, and I may decrease,
That others may be chosen and I set aside,
That others may be praised and I unnoticed,
That others may be preferred to me in everything,
That others may become holier than I,
provided that I may become as holy as I should.

So, there it was - my answer - Humility.

The struggle of the human condition.I do not know about you, but I need God's grace in fresh ways every day.
