"...the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'" (Act 20:35)
Oh how true this statement is. While stopped at a light the other morning, a homeless man approached my car with a sign, "Please help me," it said. That simple sign reached me in unimaginable ways. In the moment it took me to make my decision, my blessings flashed before me...a home, warm clothing, plentiful food...How could I not give to this man? "God bless you," I said as I gave him what I had. His "thank you" was heart felt...His smile so humble...Believe me, the receiver was not the only one touched that day.
We are called to give what we can when we can. Please...look around you today and find someone who is in need of something...anything...food, shelter, money...or something as simple as friendship, a hug or a smile...and help them. You will both be blessed beyond measure.
