Give, Give,Give!


Well it's that time of year again. I cannot even believe Christmas is coming around the corner again. We've decided to have a smaller Christmas this year. The kids will get what they want, but not quite as much as in previous years. I pulled two names off the giving tree this year and try to help those little kids who aren't getting anything at all.
I really think others need more than we do. We were taught a lesson a couple of weeks ago by our minister about giving, and it all made sense. There are many children who have parents that do give a hoot about their children. They would rather spend their Christmas money on their cigarettes, booz and drugs. Which is evil at its purest.
Then there are those who's parents have lost their jobs and don't have a lot of money to spend on presents. So it's up to all of us to help those children. I ask that you would take into consideration those children who will wake up to a tree (or no tree) and help out and give them something there parents won't or can't afford to give. Open your hearts and give what you can to one of these angels on these trees. May God bless our giving spirit this Christmas.
