As I sit here writing, I am in a pair of yoga pants, a pair of sweatpants over top of the yoga pants, a t-shirt, two flannels and am lucky enough to have a blanket on. My heater is broken in my trailer and I am freeeezing my buns off. As I sit here thinking of ways to get warm, I cannot help but think about all those people out there that are cold, like this, night after night. I think about how lucky I am to be fortunate enough to have two pairs of pants and two flannels to put on. Not everyone is as blessed. I am writing tonight to start something small that I hope will affect at least a few cold human beings out there. We all know we have a giant linen closet full of like 20 old blankets that we hardly ever use. I am writing to encourage you to take one of those blankets, in the next week, to someone in your town that needs it. Whether it be the guy you see on your way to work, that is asking for change, or the woman who you work with that is having trouble paying her electric bill. Look into their eyes and offer them the wonderful luxury of warmth. We take too much for granted. Let's not.
Please share your experience

Thank You!
What a beautiful suggestion! I hope many do just that; you can never outgive God! I pray He continues to bless your journey. (((hugs)))
