you CAN too!

"Gratitude doesn't change the scenery.  It merely washes clean the glass you look through so you can clearly see the colors."
- Richelle Goodrich

Last week we talked about thankfulness and what Thanksgiving is all about.  We discussed that many of us forget to be thankful for what we do have, always wanting more and looking for the next best thing.

This week, let's think about those who are looking for the next best thing, which is a hot meal for their family.  Their next best thing is a new pair of shoes for their son.  A coat for the winter.  Gloves and a hat for the first snowstorm of the year.  

Our challenge to you this week - As you are going through your winter gear, getting things ready for the cold weather, take a look at what you own.  Can you part with that extra pair of mittens?  What about that scarf?  If so, donate them to your church or the nearest place that helps homeless.  Go through your pantry and donate any cans of food to your nearest food pantry.  Or next time you are at the grocery store, throw a few extra cans of food in your cart that you can donate.

Devon and I collected cans this week and donated them for people in need.  You CAN too!
