I think we'll have to adopt the concept into our family, as well!Deedra Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12171807316709671890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5752966919895369470.post-88504081121162105632010-08-24T16:18:34.205-05:002010-08-24T16:18:34.205-05:00You had to through Piper in there, didn't you?...You had to through Piper in there, didn't you?! <br /><br />I was just talking to my kids about this. I am going to get some McDonalds certificates as well. Super idea! <br /><br />Another thing our church did was make up ziploc baggies of items including water bottles, tootbrush, gospel tract and a business card for the local rescue mission. We just kept it in our car.<br /><br />We just saw your mom while she was in Wyoming and told her how much we love to read your blog.

Ah! Though it's hard, I think we just have to trust that God will "deal" with the recipient of the gift - we're all held accountable for how we are stewards of what God gives us. I think the hope that we could somehow be a blessing to another who is hungry or sick or cold or thirsty should far outweigh our fear of being "used" in our mental scales. <br /><br />That being said, I rarely have any cash on me, even change. Then I feel bad because I can't give anything to those who ask. <br /><br />I like the McDonald's coupon idea. Bus passes are also great. I need to go pick some up and stash them in my wallet. Good idea, Nathan!Caseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08608567643107808912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5752966919895369470.post-83729994125113111972010-08-23T22:22:43.290-05:002010-08-23T22:22:43.290-05:00It's refreshing to see someone who sees the la...It's refreshing to see someone who sees the lack of the loop whole in that passage. As a family, we've made a commitment to obey that command, even though in so many discussions with others it inevitably leads to "well...it just depends..." You can do it!<br /><br />Also, are you aware of how much i LOVE this video? I have it memorized.Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175864305130197700noreply@blogger.com
