It has taken me all week to think about what I wanted to write. And my mind is still really blank as to what to say.
When I think of Helping Hands, I think of giving service, and this can be in any form. There are ways of service that Dan and I have talked about but we have yet to do them... maybe this year. But I have helped take meals to those in my neighborhood who were ill, just had a baby or such. I have helped with cleaning projects, I have babysat for people so they could get things done, and have told them don't pay me, it is my way to help. I have also gave a dear friend a place to stay for a month when she had to move out of her apartment and had no were else to go. And I have bought bus tokens for friends in need.
Sometimes we don't think of ourselves giving service when we are just reaching out and being a friend.
Let us remember to reach outside of ourselves and give to others as Christ would give to us.

I think that's awesome! Great ways of doing service - we never know what kind of ripples those small acts of service will create! :)
Yes, service is part of being a friend, isn't it?
Thanks for linking to me on your side bar!
