Do you ever feel like your life is a total waste? Do you look around and see all the people you know doing so much for others while you seem to be stuck in a rut you can't get out of? I often feel that way. I am not doing enough for my fellow man and if I were to die, no one would miss me. My life is a total waste, it seems. I have said that often, especially during the times when I have been laid up and my family had to wait on me an do things for me. I just feel like I am of no use to anyone.
1 Corinthinians 15:58 made me realize that I am not useless. I never have been. It made me feel good to read it today..
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
One thing I always did while I was laid up was talk to people on line and pray with them in various groups. I always let them know someone cared for them and what they were going thru. I may not have gotten out to see people and talk to them but I do it via computer and I think you can reach people this way just as though you walk out your door and visit them to tell them of God's love. I am not a wasted soul. Praise God!!
Oh Garnet, I think you are such a sweet person. You may not be able to do all that you wish but your heart is full of love and faith. I think that is more than many others.

I try and I figure God is keeping me here for a reason.
