It is sometimes the small little things that we overlook. I think of my little dog who faithfully waits and looks out the window until I come home. Then she is overjoyed and playful the rest of the day, until I have to leave again. 

Since I spent many hours of the day in the hospital rehab I got to meet people who I did not know before and a smile or a simple hi and bye uplifts me, but I also see a smile when I greet some of the people there. Many are very lonely with family living far away. I see volunteers come in and spend time with some of the patients. A hospital can be a very lonely place. 

Today is a sombre day for the farmers who have not finished the harvest yet and some valuable grain is still waiting on the fields. It is raining again.

James 4:10 tells us: “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.”

Let Him have His way in our life, because He cares.
