Help

In life there are many times when we need a little help.  Maybe your car is having trouble and you need a mechanic, or perhaps your moving and you need some muscle to haul the piano down from the third floor to the moving truck(I have had to help do this before), or maybe your just having a lousy day and need a shoulder to cry on. 

There are also opportunities for all of us to offer some help.  I was able to help out at a local free clinic the other day, which is something I do regularly.  I treated a woman there a month or so ago and she was so appreciative that she stood up and gave me a big hug when we were done.  I have often heard it said that God answers our prayers through other people.  It was in that moment when she hugged me I caught a small glimpse of the true meaning of that phrase. 

My point today is simple.  Look for opportunities to help, look at your neighbors and I can almost guarantee you will see some way to help.  I promise you that if you do help others when you can you will catch the vision that I believe God has for us.

That is all
