How lovely on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news...." Isaiah 52:7
A hungry little girl
doesn't care if your nails are chipped
when you hand her a plate of food.
A homeless woman
won't refuse your help because you missed your hair appointment and your roots
are showing. You look beautiful to her.
Ashy legs and a
wrinkled top won't stop a hurting soul from finding relief when you listen as
she pours out her heart to you.
Writing a small check you can send is better than the dream check you can't.
Writing a small check you can send is better than the dream check you can't.
Your hoop-dee is
Cinderella's chariot when it brings meals to an elderly man who otherwise
wouldn't eat that day.
Your life may be
a mess, but you still have the power to
bless.
Take your eyes off all that is
not yet perfect in yourself and your world. Shine what light you have in the
direction of someone's dark place.
Don't wait until your rich uncle gets out
of the poorhouse before you give to foreign missions. He may never get out, but
others will remain imprisoned in hunger, hopelessness, ignorance, loneliness,
and ultimately Hell if you keep your treasures to yourself waiting for your
planets to align.
You are needed, what
you have to offer is valuable, and to those you serve, you are beautiful.
