Helping the Victims Part 4

My friends, The Rushton Family, are working feverishly to put together many different ways you can help the hurricane victims. They are coordinating the first of many Mission Trips to the Hurricane Victims. You can also donate many items which they will personally deliver to the victims.

See pictures of the hurricane damage from their trip to Mississippi.

I encourage you to get your whole family involved in helping, even your children. Teach your children about helping those in need and that "it is more blessed to give than to receive." Help them have a lemonade stand or bake sale and donate the proceeds to a charity. Encourage them to give some of their allowance or hard-earned money to this cause. And ask yourself and the Lord what you can give up or go without to help others. Christians especially need to step up to the plate in this time of need.

We are so abundantly blessed in this country. So many people are complaining about the gas prices. Why? Because we are a spoiled country.

We should just be glad we have a vehicle to drive. Many people don't even have a bicycle.

Stay home more, enjoy the simple pleasures of life, ride your bike to work, or walk to the grocery store. But, don't complain about the gas prices. Be grateful to have a roof over your head, clothes to wear, food to eat, and a family to love. Many people lost all of those things this week.
