Smile :)

You there,
the one reading this now, I want you to do something. SMILE!
Smile because your beautiful
because you're amazing
because you're unique
because you can
because tomorrow is a new day
because no matter what you think someone loves you
Smile because you deserve too.


I ran across this saying or quote or whatever you wanna call it and I really liked it. I don't think the person who wrote it, made it to have a spiritual meaning, but in a way I think it does. Because each one of you reading this are beautiful, amazing, and unique!! We are made in our own special way, created by an awesome God! We each have are way of doing things and are all unique in are own special way. We can all smile :). Its the cheapest thing to where and it may be the only gift someone gets! And aren't we thankful for a new day, a new day of breath and life, a new day to smile and thank God for! And if tomorrow never comes on this earth, I pray I will meet each of you on that better, brighter tomorrow on that yonder shore in Heaven! Smile because you're loved. We are loved beyond measure! And if we don't feel it on this earth, know that theres a Father in Heaven who loves each one of us more than we can imagine! That He would send His only Son to this world to die and shed His blood for you and me! We definitely have many reasons to smile! :)

And just so you know I'm saying this to myself, I need to smile more, show the world that I have reason to smile, that I have a blessed hope to smile about, to be cheerful in my walk with Christ!


Have a Blessed day!....and don't forget to SMILE! :)
In His love and mine,
Leigha

Changes

Yup big changes! I'm moving...to Fairbury, Illinois, in less than a month. Who would have ever thought? Definitely was not in my plans to be doing, or ever doing! But God had a different plan in mind, and I know its a greater plan than I could have ever come up with. But if it would have been my choice, Illinois would have been definitely not on the top of my list. Don't get me wrong I love the people, but it's just a little to fast paced for me, has no dirt roads or even gravel for that matter, and there's lots n lots of people and towns and houses! :) A little different from what I'm used to here in Bern, Kansas! But I'm getting more excited. It's going to be a big adjustment tho. I'm gonna miss my dear, crazy, awesome, maybe a little odd at times, Family so much! And my wonderful friends, whom I will dearly miss! But don't worry I will be home a lot!....I think! :) And the big open spaces where you can't see anything or anyone for miles around

Tribute to Richard

Image
        I don't know if it was more of a honor to know such a man, work for him, or speak at his Rosary service, but people like Richard don't come around very often and I for one feel so blessed to be touched by his life.         We tend to say that Richard lost his battle with brain cancer, but what really happened is that he won. He gained the greatest victory on Monday, July 6th, 2020 and is now living the best life and I am so jealous. He was so ready to go and his last few weeks were such a testimony to me. Patiently  and eagerly  waiting to leave this earth and his physical pain. That's how I want to be.         I’ve been blessed to have many wonderful and incredible examples and mentors in my 25 years thus far, but out of all of them, Richard outweighs them all. He was a silent example in so many ways and I think I can say along with many other young people that even though Richard didn’t have any children of his own, he was like a father figure to so many of us. No

Back in Kansas | week 1

Image
Yes, I'm home.  Yes, I miss Bukeka. Yes, I'm cold. Yes, I miss it. Yes, it went fast. Yes, I learned a lot. No, I won't be able to explain it all right now.  One of my friends on the other side thought it was funny how I numbered my weeks while I was in Uganda, but then he suggested I should do the same thing when I get back home too. Praising God for the most incredible past 7 months and also for the safe journey back home on Tuesday.  You know I am praising Jesus so much, my first week at home couldn't have gone better. I was nervous and anxious about coming home, and still am a little with the weeks ahead. But God has been so faithful to me. I'm 100% confidant its the prayers prayed on my behalf with this transition. Yes I'm lonely for my kids and all that Suubi was to me, but so far the transition home has been so smooth. Maybe it helps that I could jump right back into working, and that I got to come home to two of my sibling
