Mother and two kids
Last week I was blessed to meet a Mother with her 17 year old son and 18 year old daughter. They were homless and were sent to Pastor Bruce Hood at Inner City because he has a good heart to help out. I was speaking with them and got to help them get some food from the weekly blessings that Pastor Bruce recieves from Trader Joes. I aslo wa blessed to take the kids to a store to get them something to drink. I also was able to give them a couple of dollars for their pockets. This deeply affected them..We were walking back to the InnerCity office and the girl asked me why I did what I had done…I told them that I am an addict in recovery and that many times persons had helped me in the past. I mentioned that my faith was also part of it as it was a gift from Jesus….The girl was moved and stopped to ask if it was like, “Pay it Forward?” She said, “I get it”. Some day she will help someone else. I was so deeply moved byn her connection with Christ and the seed that was planted even though she might not fully appreciate what He had done. This was an awesome expereince that I lift up to GOD. Thank you so much!
Please pray for the family and the mother.May God bless you and have favor on your thoughts and dreams.
