You know we were stressing over money and our finances and how certain things were going to get paid. We prayed for a miracle with out finances and thank you Lord Jesus for giving us one. This great foundation in our area helped lift one of our financial problems. People don't have to help no one or just turn a blind eye to anyone in need. This agency came to our rescue. I would like to encourage anyone who is financially able to donate anything. To please donate to any charity of your choice. There are charities for everything. I mean GREAT ones.
Please let your heart and God lead you to donate to these charities. You may not see who benefits from your donation(s). But, rest assured they do go to people with disabilities who need them.
On the right hand side of my blog is a group of links for different charities. I am aware I do not have all the charities out there. If you have one you would like to see added please feel free to comment on any post and I will be more than happy to check it out and add it. Please also be assured that I do, do my research and I will not post anything that I feel is just to scam people. The wonderful agency who helped us out is called "Vickie's Angel Walk" they are a non profit organization. They help people in Central PA. The donations they receive does not go to research. Instead it goes to actual cancer people to help lift some of the burden of a bill or two off of the person fighting cancer.
I know I am talking a lot about them. But, our family is just in awe that we reached out to them and they jumped right in to help.
You can also rest assured that once we are able, our family will be doing different fundraisers to help them raise more money so that they may help more people....
I think what people fail to realize (because let's be honest people really don't slow down to realize much) is that it's the little things in life that mean so much.
If it's nothing but a kind word, a gentle smile, a polite gesture, etc.... Those little things can make someone's day more special than you realize. You never know what the stranger you just was nasty to is going through.
Now say that slowed down and took a deep breath of fresh air and the scent of nature with it's relaxing aroma. You walk and see this same stranger (remember different scenario) but this time you smile just so kindly. That stranger just found out that either them self or a loved one, best friend, etc. Was just told that they were terminal. With so much on this strangers mind.. that one little simple gesture of something like a smile. Brightened up that strangers face...lifted their spirits if only just for a moment. But, that's a one moment that they forgot all their troubles and all their sadness...
I guess all I'm trying to say is to just let your heart guide you... Hatred and bitterness and anger it honestly does nothing but puts un unnecessary stress on your body and it will make you physically sick...
Reach out and help someone if you can financially and if you can't do something nice for someone. Hold a door open anything... We are a world that is still sadly divided by hatred.
That's all I have to say for tonight... God Bless you all... and please open your hearts and listen to the path God chooses for you to follow.
