Amber, a mom of a one-year-old, posted online that she needed baby food, milk, diapers and wipes for her baby, Annie.  There was something very honest and raw about her post and I felt compelled to reach out to her.  I sent her a text to let her know I would help.  I offered to meet Amber at her local store at 8 p.m. so she could shop and get exactly what she needed.  I told her I would be wearing a pink scarf and black jacket - she said she would be wearing a pink top and black pants.  We recognized each other right away in our twinzie colors and exchanged hugs.  I felt something special happening between us…we quickly moved beyond being strangers to feeling united in a common purpose, which was feeding both of our Souls.

She went directly to the baby food aisle and started stocking up.  She kept checking in with me to see if it was O.K. to add another item.  Trying to hold back tears, she told me that she was a widow, and about her...

Today I receive guidance to be prepared to pray for someone who really needs it.  About an hour later, I was driving home and saw a man sitting on the side of the road squatting with his knees bent to his shoulders and his hands covering his face.  I slowed my car and parked nearby, but not too close, and sat there for a moment asking, “Really, God? Am I supposed to get out of my car and walk up to this man in what appears to be a painful moment?” I got an immediate feeling of urgency, “Now is the time to go.”

So, I got out of my car, slowly approached him, and said, “Hi.  I just want to know how you're doing.  Are you O.K.?”  As he took his hands away from his face I could see tears were streaming down from his red eyes, and his face was distorted with pain and he said, “No!” He poured out his story telling me the mother of his two children kicked him out of the house and won't let him see his children. He...

Today, while at a sporting goods store I came across a North Face men's jacket marked down from $120 to $19.95 – so, I bought it!  I didn't know who I would give this jacket to.  I just knew that within the hour I'd be giving it to someone who needed to keep warm that night.  I just trusted that Spirit would make it happen.  Low and behold, it did happened, within the hour.  I went to eat lunch at Zippy's Café, in my usual communal spot with comfy chairs and pillows.  A little family-tribe arrived with kids that spread throughout the entire cozy space, so I gladly moved to a table that looked out the window to the street.

Within minutes I spotting the recipient of the new coat - a homeless man was walking then stopped right next to my car!  He was eating something from a brown bag.  I got up from my meal, crossed the street, and asked him if he needed a warm coat.  With no hesitation, he said - Yes.  I opening my car and...

Today something magical happened....

Many of you know that I often give warm clothes to the homeless during the winter months.  Well...while I was driving to the co-op, I saw a man on crutches with only a windbreaker on.  I knew to stop for him.  I parked in a well-lighted gas station and called out to him, asking if he needed warm clothes.  He said yes, and came over.  A car had hit him and broke his leg about a month ago.  Due to medical expenses, he lost his ability to pay rent and became homeless.  He was grateful to get a new wool hat, shoes, socks, pants and thermal underwear, too!  But, the magic was only starting to happen.  Another man, who was standing nearby, came over and said he saw what I did for man on crutches.  He asked me to pray for him...so I prayed for Daniel.  Then, when he walked away another man walked up and said, "I saw you pray for that man, would you pray for me, too?"  His name was Scott, and I...
