Some of us have big ginormous hearts.  This is a calling.  A purpose.  Loving people right where they are.  It is sometimes hard and it tugs on our heartstrings, but this is how we can know for sure that we are most alive.  This is where God lives.

God does give us dreams.  For me,  it has always been to use the gifts and talents that He has given me to serve for a purpose.  A purpose greater than my self.  All for God’s glory.

A few months ago, we were given an opportunity ( a dream) to go out and serve the homeless in our community.  When we said YES, we would go and  when we went with out hesitations or limitations. It left a lot of room for God to move and to work.  We had no idea the impact it would have.  We learned more from our conversations with them than they ever would from us. Our hearts were broken and we were forever changed by it.  This is now one of our most favorite place to be.  These are our new friends.

Do not be afraid to go out and love others that you may think are different from you.  You will find that you have more in common than you realize.  It is all only by God’s goodness, mercy and grace that any of us have anything. Love bridges the gaps and can heal wounds.  Love lifts the spirit and is a universal language.
