Premiere Contest WinnerSay It's So

I may show kindness in myriad ways, love in many more but how do I show hope and faith to those whose lonely lives are tattered and torn as I sit sated in mind and body safe within my home, my family, my church? invite them inside for a meal and a warm fire or if in line at the store, pay for their meager purchase your giving spirit is your crown wear it with humility and true selflessness and praise God for your blessings that duplicate with each one you give away amen

Amen, indeed. This is such an uplifting poem that speeks to us all, that I think to congratulate you on your 1st place win, would detract from the value of this message. Regards, SusUrrus :))
