Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely

TMV© 2008
Defend the poor and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and needy.
Deliver the poor and needy;
Free them from the hand of the wicked.
Psalm 82:3-4


I don't believe this mandate is seasonal or optional. Through the giving of our extras, the helping of our hands, and the voices of our prayers, let us as women, make a difference in lives around us.

Dear Father,
Help us as women pray for those around us that are in dire straits. Let us remember those that are less fortunate with extra meals and clothing. Let us really be Your hands and feet that make a difference in the world today. Give us eyes to see, ears to hear, and willingness of heart to walk with those who have burdens to big to bear. Give us the strength, joy, and love to look beyond ourselves to support those who are in need.
In Jesus name,
Amen

Please share how you are making a difference in your part of the world. You ideas may spur others to action. :)
