Giving Back


There is a part of my neighborhood I drive by where I see the same homeless people & it breaks my heart everytime I drive past them. I have a huge stockpile of food & household items that I keep on hand for our family and to give to others in need or for our annual garage sale.
Well, today I got the courage to put these items together for this man I see on the corner usually every Thursday. It's a safe place for me to give it to him since it's at a busy intersection. If you know someone in need, please give as you feel led.

I packed the bag for him today. Me and the girls drove it to him. He said thanks and that was about it. I'm sure he feels a little embarassed but thankful. We had a card for him, that says we were thinking of you and prayed for you today.

That's so nice of you!!

I'm sure he was just caught off guard and didn't really know how to react right away but I'm sure he was very thankful. :)
