nothing to say

A few months ago I got an email from my friend Mike who reminded me that even when we say nothing, we can say a bunch.

We humans always want to have the right words to say.  Sometimes there are no words.  Sometimes our words hurt.  Sometimes it is best to say nothing at all.  Alison Krauss sings a beautiful song that is titled, you say it best, when you say nothing at all.

Sometimes the gift of your presence is all that is needed.  Sometimes just a card with a very simple message.  "Thinking of you" or "Praying for you" or "I love you."

Don't feel like you have to solve the worlds problems every time you open your mouth.  Just love them.

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
