Have been hesitant to write, my story is not filled with any great revelations or
unique ideas...I was so humbled and thrilled to receive the envelope with the
$10 bill so fresh and full of promise. Right away I had so many ideas for areas
that I wanted to put my effort and God's money....I prayed just knowing that
it would be revealed to me. While waiting for a destination I went about putting
back the $ I earn each week doing a small side job...
then, last Saturday after leaving the missions fair where I purchased some
wonderful things :) I headed to yet another fund raiser where I saw a dear
friend who had been one of the finalists in my 'destination, help someone'.
As soon as I saw her sweet smile and hugged her neck I just knew that she was
the one I would offer a hand(a humble amount of $100) for her to put to use
for something that 'she' needed....You see she has in recent months become
Mother again to three teenagers who have always called her Grandmother. What
a loving and unselfish and most difficult thing for her to do at a time in her
life when she could have chosen to be their Godly influence from a distance
instead of opening her heart and home to deal with difficult decisions and a
financial burden. I am thankful to God, our wonderful church and the donor family
that jumpstarted so many needed offerings in the name of love.
