I asked a friend if they got anything for Christmas. They said, "no, I told my family that whatever they were going to spend on me, to give me the money instead, because I wanted to buy a house in Nicaragua."
So my friend didn't get a shirt or a hat or a coat. They got the satisfaction and joy of helping someone move into a beautiful home with a concrete floor. I was so very touched by the generosity of the family and the kindheartedness of my friend.
In a world where everyone wants something for themselves, it is so good to see people who want less so that others can be blessed.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
