Murphy

Last Wednesday, I didn't sleep very well the night before and to make matters worse it was rainy and straight depressing when I woke. I think I was having so much trouble sleeping because it just seems like there is so much on my mind lately that I can't seem to quiet all the questions when I try to sleep. I think I read somewhere that when you can't sleep, God is trying to talk with you..probably true... So I went in to work feeling some kind of way and as I walked the few blocks to my office I noticed a blind man walking. Now, I have seen this man before but this is the first time he and I were walking in the same direction. Well, we end up at the same intersection and he asks me to help him cross. I said "of course" and the we struck up a conversation. He said his name was Murphy. He was kind and sweet and incredibly upbeat. All I kept thinking was "WOW you are walking around here sad and this man with all of his limitations, he still has a positive outlook." I think God sent Murphy to me as a reminder that I have so much to be grateful for and the GOD has all of this under control. Have a great day! Sherri
