This past weekend I went into a Taco Bell in early morning
and saw what appeared to be a mother and her two girls get out of their old
truck, split up and go into both restrooms, lock the doors and make quite a bit
of noise with the water. Seemingly
getting “cleaned up" for the day. We are all seeing people struggling just to exist and have something to
eat.
IDEA: Rather than be numbed
by the numbers of people in this condition, find somebody who truly needs help
and is doing the best they know how, and ask God how He would have you help
them. Most people in dire straits get
more criticism and suggestions than compassionate help. If a lecture would change their situation
they would be in good shape. The love of
God demonstrated as compassionate assistance with basic needs can be a powerful
witness, and is something Jesus did when on earth, and does today through His
Body. Do to others what you would want
them to do to you. Familiar ring? We can make a difference for some.
