Not to sound down, but this time of year always makes my heart heavy for those less fortunate than us. It's also the time of year where I wish I had so much more than I have in order to bless others with awesome gifts, and yet I usually find myself stressed out because I can't give more. Then there are stories, like the one I'm about to share, that help me realize that things aren't as bad as they could be, and that I am very fortunate to be where I am. Contentment is key, and these stories help put that back into perspective for me, right when I need it.
I would also encourage everyone to give something if they could, even if its just a dollar, to this poor family. It breaks my heart to hear these types of stories, but at the same time I am always blessed and surprised at seeing the responses of communities that pull together to help someone in a time of need.
Click here to read the story. (WARNING, this may be a tear jerker!) You can also google "Andrue Smith" and stories will come up if you need to read more or get more information.
And remember, the most awesome gift you can give this family is your prayer. Please remember to pray for them.
