Thankful for a good friend

Today I am feeling thankful for friends.  It was very encouraging yesterday when out of the blue I got an e-mail from a friend who was listening to the song "one less" by Matthew West and decided to e-mail me.  The e-mail was short and sweet telling me that she heard the song and was thinking of us and if we got discouraged with all the paperwork to listen to the song and remember how important this adoption is.  This is just what I needed to help me get through this very long week.

Thank you my friend for being my friend and your encouragement and support.  I know we don't see each other very much but you will always be my best friend.

Pause my playlist at the bottom and you can listen to the song via the link below

There's a child, been abandoned out on the street
Now she's waiting for someone to be her miracle
There's a wife somewhere halfway around the world
Begging God for a little girl she can call her own

Well, worlds collide and colors fade
And a man and wife brought their little girl home today

And there's one less, one less
One less broken heart in the world tonight
Yeah, there's one less, one less
There's one less broken heart in the world tonight

We are called to the widows and the orphans
But it's easy to ignore their silent cries
Oh, but every single time somebody reaches into the darkness
Makes a choice to help the helpless, we let mercy save a life

And there's one less, one less
And there's one less broken heart in the world tonight
Yeah, there's one less, one less
Yeah, there's one less broken heart in the world tonight

Well, the truth is we are all the orphans
But love has left the 99 just to find the one

So let worlds collide, colors fade
Let your life be the miracle today, whoa

One less, one less
One less broken heart in the world tonight
Tonight I know there's one less, one less
There's one less broken heart in the world tonight, yeah

One less night alone
One less child without a home
One less birthday gone forgotten
One more soul rising from the bottom

One less night alone
One less child without a home
One less birthday gone forgotten
One more soul rising from the bottom

One less, one less
There's one less broken heart in the world tonight
