Giving While Getting Ready for School

As we get ready for the school year to start, we also like to help another get ready through our book bag gifting project at church.  Elena picked out school supplies to help a child in need before she shopped for herself, and it was heart-warming to see her understand how fortunate she is.  Listening to her in the car talking about how she wanted to "give this blessing of a book bag to someone" and then say, "I'm blessed I get to pick out my own.  I am really glad." was probably one of the best things I have ever heard from her. 

If you see a need...any need...take a moment to see if you can help meet it.  You never know who you might bless and how God might work through you!
