I find sometimes I get caught up in my own little world. I worry about things I cant really control and I want things I cannot afford. However, after tonights sorority meeting of picking out our Christmas families we will be helping this year I find myself humbled and ashamed. I have been so blessed in my life with the gift of security. Whether it be money or the comfort of a good home with a stable family. Tonight my bubble exploded with the realization of the true need in this community. I found myself wanting to help everyone even though I know in my heart it is not possible. I was blown away with the amount of children going hungry, sleeping on floors & doing without a lot of the things I take for granted. Children in OUR community!! Gods Children!! Children that cannot help themselves. They have to rely on us. Maybe one person cant make a huge difference but you add another and another and together we can make it happen. I have felt the power of prayer in this community. Ive felt the love and support too. And in my heart I know that if anyone can make a difference it will be my town. Ive seen firsthand the compassion. I know it is possible. Im praying to God to make it happen. Bcz we all know the innocence of the children, and they deserve better!! Please open your hearts and help a child/family in need. Its scary to think how easily any of us could be in their situation. Give, Give, Give. Whether its money or your time. Everything makes a difference. God Bless!!
