Dreamwork

How clever are storks that they drift off of one another when flying in a V so that they each get a little bit of a break now and then? You help me and then I'll help you. We have so much to gain in life when we help each other out. When we make an effort to help others, to give to others, to make others' lives easier, I believe we will be rewarded in one way or another. Karma will come around or at the very least, we have something to feel good about! I've been thinking about this a lot this week as Sunday's message was about being generous and giving.

"The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor." Proverbs 22:0 (NIV)

I believe in this so much. The next time you see a "drifter," don't hesitate to give him the extra change in your pocket - or at the very least look him in the eye and acknowledge that he is a person. It's easy to place such people all in the same category, discounting their efforts. But you never know when your generosity could spark a positive change in someone's life. Don't hold back. You may help them fly someday.
