Last month I sat in Starbucks at the Lima airport deciding which muffin flavor to buy. There were a variety of options to choose from – all displayed neatly in front of me. I stopped dead in my tracks and immediately the people with very limited choices and those with no choice rushed into my mind. For every person with options there are people without. The latter group of people, they were instantly placed heavily on my heart and in my mind.
Deciding against the muffin, the thing that was laid on my heart right then was to pray for those without. It’s was best choice for me at that moment and currently in my life.

She puts on her ragged clothes, smoothing out the wrinkles and trying to wipe away some stains …
She dresses in the most current fashion with plenty to choose from if she doesn’t like the “look…”

He swings by Starbucks trying to decide which size of fancy coffee to go with his gourmet sandwich before his classes…
Those who “have” are not bad. that is not the point. It’s what you do with what you “have” that reflects your character. Share what you have………joyfully and often.
A pessimist, they say, sees a glass of water as being half empty; an optimist sees the same glass as half full. But a giving person sees a glass of water and starts looking for someone who might be thirsty!
Walking in His Mighty Grip with a glass of water,
