This broke my heart. I was in the drive thru this morning when I noticed a gentleman all bundled up freezing in the cold, with a sign saying how he has nothing to eat and no help to reach out to.
Cars in the drive thru were passing by this individual as if he was a nobody. I just knew in my gut that this individual desperately needed help. I couldn't help but stop, reach for my wallet, get out of my car and hand him a bill that should be able to feed him for the next few days. And the cars behind me were honking at me because I delayed their day by 30 seconds to help someone that clearly needed help.
I've had times where I've witnessed people needing help but I didn't stop to help them either because I was either in a hurry or I was trying to do 5 things at once. Only to end up regretting it later that I didn't lend them a helping hand. I didn't want this one to eat me up inside.
I understand that times are tough right now for so many people but I still like to be a difference maker to ones in need. I may not make their problems and struggles go away but at least I can help lighten things up for them and make their day.
