I truly believe that. Even if we are only able to help just one person at a time.

Chuck and I were able to help an elderly neighbor in a time of crisis on Sunday. We were so glad we were home when she came knocking on her door. It may have saved her life.

When I read your quote, Dotsie, the words really hit home!

I may sound square but to me personally I never feel better or more alive than when able to help someone who really needs the help. To be able to make a difference is so awesome I can't even describe how it feels....Good for you NHJackie!

It doesn't sound square at all. It's what we do and who we are.

Chatty, what you said is not square. And you are not square.

You are full to over-flowing with kindness.

Chatty ...if helping others and showing kindness makes one square...then...I wish the whole world was a big square instead of a ball....

[Razz] True words, especially for those who love the Lord, Dotsie. We can lighten if only but a small corner of the world by helping those in need around us.
[Smile] We may never see huge results here, but every little help helps and I'm sure there will be surprises in heaven that we never even imagined.
