the beauty of heartbreak

There are many things that break my heart and people are on the very top of the list.Life deals people such hard cards sometimes and it breaks my heart to see how people deal or dont deal with issues. I just pray that God intervene when I see things like this but, man..... when I see these types of things they resonate with me for so long. I want to rescue everyone..... sometimes its hard to know my own limits and just TRUST that God has NO LIMITS! With him there is NOTHING impossible..... he saves, he redeems, he covers, he cleanses and he restores.... NOT ME but, I can pray that person into their victory. Today I ask that you join me in praying about something......

Saturday while I was rushing to a wedding I saw a young girl (about 13-16 yrs old) on the corner under a bridge holding a sign. 
The sign read " Pregnant! Homeless! Please help!" 
It was obvious by her belly that she was late in pregnancy and had not bathed in a while. I did a double take to see if that was what I really saw and yes, she was there. I did not imagine it (I wish I had).
All I could say was "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus". I felt my heart sink and my stomache turn.
What was it that brought this baby- this child herself to this point, where are her parents, where is her family, her friends, the father of the baby? I looped back around to pick this girl up and since it was under IH-45 It took me all of 5 minutes to get turned around and sure enough she was gone!
"Oh my, Lord, please help her", was all I could say while I drove the parking lots in the nearby shopping areas looking for this girl. Had I found her I dont know what I would have done, all I know is, I couldnt just drive by...... !
Late to the wedding or not...... I was gonna find her, I was gonna figure something out.

Well readers, (all 3 of you :)
After circling the area, I did not find her. So, I ask you with a sincere heart to please say a prayer for this young girl! I dont know her name but, my father God does! 
Each day I pass this same area by the bridge and I've looked for her everyday since then... she is in my heart and in my prayers. My heart breaks for her heart ache.

Please pray for the beautiful- precious- soon to be young mother and her baby.
God is faithful!

blessings.
-missa
