    Default They paid it forward


    This story starts out with me being a sour grape. I was having a bad day Monday and was full of grumbling . So I called a guy with a good Christian attitude and gave him a earful. He cheered me up as usual even though we haven't taklked in a while.
    Then I asked him how he was. Ouch!!!! He was in the hospital at the time, and had been outa work since May due to injury. His wife cannot work because of taking him to Docter and caring for kids. Needless to say he was in need.
    I put him on the prayer list last night at bible study and one guy suggest we help him out. All and all he received two buggies of groceries, a voucher for 100 worth of food and nearly a thousand in cash.
    I know these things should not be discussed but I found it to good not to share. God works in all situations.

    I have been on both sides of situations like that. I still find it hard to remember that my bad times aren't the only ones there are. And then I meet someone as you have and I feel about dumb. He works in many ways, and puts many people in your life as good examples and bad. We learn from both. Glad to hear your friend got a hand of friendship extended his way.

    It's better to give than receive because the rewards are greater. Prayers sent for the family and thanks to you for a great show of generosity.

    BAMA S, isn't it funny how that worked. HE was able to humble you. Showing you how good you have it. And HE knew you would do the right thing.
