The Gift of Giving

I saw her on the street corner she was holding up a sign All she was doing was asking for help but she wanted something of mine. She was asking for any change I had she didn’t ask for very much I looked to see just what I had for my heart I felt she touched. I noticed she was elderly and had trouble holding the sign in her hand She could barely walk upon the street and it was hard for her to stand. I looked directly into her eyes and then I started to cry I couldn’t understand why I felt this way as she was walking by. I waved for her to come to me I don’t know why I felt so bad That’s when I reached into my pocket and gave her everything I had. She thanked me over and over she said, may God bless you every day I told her, she deserves the blessing from God as I watched her walk away. I know God touched my soul that day ‘cause He taught me how to give I will never forget this lesson I learned as long as I shall live.
