the gift of a sandwich

On Monday I helped our church organist, Dick Lystra to make sandwiches for the homeless.   Two pieces of bread and two pieces of cheese.

In Ft. Pierce, many of the feeding programs have shut down due to the social distancing rules.

When we finished making the sandwiches, we drove to the waterfront bandstand, to the bus station, and to a park to give them away.

We parked the car and walked to where the folks were.  They could tell as we were walking up with bags, that we had food.  They were very interested.  We asked them if they wanted a sandwich.  The response was incredible.  Every single person said yes.  And every single person said "thank you."

I have to tell you, this was one of the holiest moments that I have experienced in a long time.

While we try to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe, let us not forget the least of these.  When we help them, we are helping Jesus.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
