Oh, God, when I have food, help me to remember the hungry;
When I have work, help me to remember the jobless; When I have a warm home, help me to remember the homeless;
When I am without pain, help me remember those who suffer;
And remembering, help me to destroy my complacency and bestir my compassion. Make me concerned enough to help, by word and deed, those who cry out for what we take for granted. ~Samuel F. Pugh
I was hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed Me..." ~Matthew 25:35
Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving. ~W.T. Purkiser
Never underestimate the difference YOU can make in the lives of others. Step forward, reach out and help. This week reach to someone that might need a lift. ~Pablo
Remember those who suffer and make a difference in the lives of families in need today:

Thanks for reminders. I will let these verses not only sink into my mind and heart deeply, but apply them in anyway the opportunity arises.
