Out of the "self pity rut"....

It always amazes me how when I start to get into a "self pity rut", (we are alone for the Christmas season in the middle of nowhere) how God sends me a person or people to jolt me out of it and gets me counting my blessings once again! We had lunch today with a Cuban couple, both doctors who have had to leave their two children of 15 and 7 in Cuba, whilst they work in a little village in Gabon, they see them for 1 month in every 7! Encourage someone this week! Take the time to find someone who is alone for Christmas and be a blessing....
