Great idea! have to be honest with you.. at first me wanting to post here was to toot my own horn... :oops: then I wasn't going to post... but then I thought NO I WILL post so maybe I can share ideas of simple ways to make a difference. When I had a good month financially, I gave my excess to help some families financially.I took my time to help a lady furnish her home almost for free by helping connect her with people giving away household items.When a single mom's car broke down, i found out where she was getting it fixed, paid the bill anonymously. It was great! She was telling me the story and praising God for answering her prayers! The best!!! She still has no clue! I added an extra half hour on to items I need to do outside the home so I don't have to rush and can give a smile, a hello, a good morning, or engage in conversation with people.Every child I see now gets my undivided attention... I help them to feel like they are so valued and loved by me... an adult... that there is no doubt they are created for magnificence.When I talk to people, I repeat in my head "I love you I love you" so it will come through my eyes that they are loved. (even if they are mad at me) I pray for people... all the time... as I'm walking by them on the street, in my prayer journal, whenever, where ever.I share what I'm learning here with who ever wants to listen and frankly who ever doesn't want to listen... LOL... not so much about the hoax, but about MJ and ultimately God's message of L.O.V.E.I love your idea, black_orchid, of giving blood (i'm anemic so they don't want mine! LOL) but that's a great way too! Many people think charity has to be giving of money.... but I believe it is giving of resources... your money yes... but in a world where finances are getting tighter for many... you can give of your time, your energy, your love, your smiles, your hugs, your possessions, your prayers ... it's endless what you can give.
