Sometimes Words Are Not Necessary
Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
I rocked a five-and-a-half months old baby, until his family came in. The baby was born premature and had a bad heart. They are Pakistani, and were not very friendly, and could not understand why, a stranger, would rock their baby.
That is very common attitude among Middle Easterners, who are not very friendly anyway. When they came in I politely left the room, and left them alone with their baby. They had put their baby up for adoption, since they had found no value in her with a bad heart.
I then visited a middle-aged African-American lady. As I walked in she would mumble something that I could not understand. So I spoke to her in a soft voice. She settled down and I sat with her for over an hour, and I think she enjoyed the visit.
Sometimes words are not necessary! If we are rocking a beautiful baby or sitting with an elderly person, sometimes words are not necessary!
To find out the future of this special baby, read the post, "The Failed Adoption."
Have you had an experience where words were not necessary? Can you tell me about it in the comments section?
