Today’s Inspiration
This is a song called “Oh My God” by Jars of Clay. It’s one of the most amazing songs I’ve ever heard. The last section of the song completely wrecks me:
Sometimes when I lose my grip, I wonder what to make of heaven
All the times I thought to reach up
All the times I had to give
Babies underneath their beds
Hospitals that cannot treat all the wounds that money causes,
All the comforts of cathedrals
All the cries of thirsty children - this is our inheritance
All the rage of watching mothers - this is our greatest offenseOh my God
Oh my God
Oh my God
Today’s Challenge
If you normally eat out after church, skip it today and eat at home. Donate the money you save to your local food pantry.

It doesnt take much money to stock a pantry. Our church has a pantry, and I am shocked how a little money can go a far way! And feed and bless ALOT of people. I second that challenge!

Gretch-A-Sketch,
Love the name…
Glad you found the idea useful.
Kell909,
I’m learning to not despise small beginnings. Too often I want to do something great, but I’m realizing that great things start with small things…
