I was in the hospital this past weekend and read 2 books 1st book, which really got me thinking about how I was living out my faith, and was I sitting idle on only focusing on myself. Some of the thoughts that began to run through my head were
1) Am I living out love, or am I only consumed with if I feel like I am living right?
2) Am I focused more on OTHERS or am I only focused on making sure that I look inside myself and examine my own heart only?
The 2nd book I read really took me by surprise. My wife recommended it and usually we have a little different taste in literature. But I must say she was right this book was so awesome. I have been telling everyone I know to read this because it really moved me. Might have been the fact that I was in the hospital and tons of hurting kids all around me, but man this book had me crying like a little school girl.
Things that I took from this book were
1) You never know what someones life has been like to make them the way they are (don't judge a book by its cover)
2) Sometimes people just need one person to love them because they might not have received love from anyone in so long they forgot what love looks like.
3) You can prevent forest fires(sort of), well you can change the world, even if its something small right around.
