Matt and Diane are familiar with the school family. They from the very childhood felt sympathy for each other, which then developed into a stronger feeling. The young people were married, and they had a beautiful daughter, Louella.
Recently, Diana posted a photo in Facebook, made by her husband. The picture shows herself, sleeping in an embrace with her daughter. The photo is accompanied by a small but extremely touching story.
In a short time, the recording became incredibly popular and collected several thousand likes! We suggest that you read this touching story.
"It happened a few days ago. Luella's daughter was cut off teeth, and so she cried aloud. To calm the baby, I lay down next to her in bed, we both soon fell asleep ...
When I woke up, I saw that Matt had already returned home. He looked agitated, and his eyes glistened with tears. Seeing my worried look, my husband hastened to reassure me, saying that everything is fine. Just when Matt saw me asleep next to his daughter, he realized how much he loved us. After all, we involuntarily reminded him of the story told by our priest.
It happened one of those days when my husband and I left Louella alone for the first time. Me and Matt went to church on Sunday worship. After the service, we talked with the pastor, and he told us about one case, which he witnessed in the orphanage in Uganda.
As a missionary, he often visited boarding schools and orphanages around the world, but there was a special atmosphere. When the priest went into a huge room, where about a hundred cots with babies stood in close rows, he noted with surprise that there was a ringing silence in the room ...
Usually, when so many babies are gathered in one room, someone's crying or whimper is heard constantly. But here everyone was silent ...
The priest asked the worker of the orphanage why the children behave so strangely, and her answer forever crashed into his memory. She said that at first all the kids, getting into the orphanage, ceaselessly cry. Their cry they express pain and call their relatives to help. But after a week everyone is silent, because they understand that they are of no use to anyone and there is no one to console them.
Silence is evidence of the hopelessness that reigns in the souls of babies. Children understand that no one will come for them, perhaps never ...
From this story, we were shivering. We promised ourselves that we will never ignore the crying of our children. Even in the middle of the night, when I hear Luella's sobbing, however tired I am, I will definitely calm her down.
When he saw me asleep in a cot near Louella, Matt understood without words. While we were sleeping, he prepared dinner for us. And when I woke up, he tightly embraced me and said: "I love you more than anything in the world ..." "
Reading these lines, you can not remain indifferent.
This story does not allow me to sleep for many nights, hugging my child, I remember these words about kids and my heart cries.
Lord, I pray you that every kid in this world will find parents, kind and caring, so that every kid in the world was happy and did not know the evil and diseases ... I beg you, Lord. Amen.
