Day 3 We have water.
Well, I have been praying for God to let me know where He needs me. Yesterday, I received an email asking for help at the local food bank. So today, I spent 3 1/2 hours there handing out food. There was never a lull in the line of recipients. Several of the people are homeless, and as the weather turns colder and colder, I just wonder how they survive. One of the biggest needs for the people that are homeless is water. I know that we all reflect on our lives and we know how very blessed we really are-but to think of not having something so simple as water? Well, that just breaks my heart. I was humbled today, as I know I very well should be. We are having a tough go of things right now, but I saw at least 100 people in our tiny little town today who are most definitely worse off than we are. We have a home. We have a car. We have a pantry and refrigerator full of food. We have a warm bed. We have access to technology and education and medical care. And we have water.
