Look Around


We are off to the beach this summer like many other people are. But when you go on vacation, do you really think about how lucky you are? You've got the money to go there, food and water, and I'm sure you have many clothes to change into. We are so blessed, though we do not seem to understand how blessed we are. In 2008, nine million children died before the age of five. A third of this was because of hunger. We should be thrifty with everything that we have been blessed with and share our wealth, even if it is just paying for someones lunch or a candy bar. To someone that could mean the world. If you can't help the people in another country, then help the people who live around you. I bet there is at least one family who really needs someone's help. Maybe God wants you to step up to the plate today. You never know how much of a blessing you could be until you do it. Just like Brandon Heath's song Give Me Your Eyes, see just how much you have been missing but more importantly how much more we can all give and help.
So today, wherever you go, look around and realize that there is a God.
