Serving at the Mission

Wow! what a great time we had at the GO Ministries in Ashtabula. We met a lot of fun people and had a wonderful time feeding those less fotunate. There were people from other churches as just some families willing to help. Last year they served over 300 but not sure how many this year. fortunately it was nice out so I think the numbers might have been down because of it.

I was thinking there would have been more because of the economy but I'll find out this week when I go back this week.

It was so nice meeting new people and helping them out. There was an elderly couple there. I helped them with seconds and then another take out container loaded up with ham and turkey. It looked like they were planning on having all that last for at least a week so I did them up good. They walked out with 3 take out containers, 2 loaves of bread and a container of pie.

I wish I could have taken them home with me. They were in their 80's at least and she was with a walker. The world is so twisted it hurts sometimes. How can I even complain about what I suffer each day or even each week. It's nothing compared to reality.

I have My GOD, my family and friends and I pray they have God to hold onto. I don't know what I would do with out him. My life would be so different now and probably not worth much.

I am grateful to him for giving me the desire to share and care. As much as regular people irritate me, those in need are on the top of the chain. I can stop in a heart beat when I see someone hurting or in need.

It seems those who actually have something whine way too much and it just pisses me off. I am ashamed to say that I am that person every time and again and look back on how Christ died for those who have nothing. he's there for us too but we need to reach out to those who are less fortunate then us. And that is anyone. Even if you are set for life. You need to reach to those on the level just below you,. what a difference we would make if we all just checked around us and actually looked beyond our own feet.

Lord bless this land and those that follow that we can be your hands and your feet to reach the REST of your kingdom>

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
