Yesterday we talked about the wisdom of history and how tales of Depression showed unity among people.

Here are some ways you can make a difference:

1. Choose a local charity to give some time to every week, even an hour
or two will help and give your life a new sense of meaning and purpose.

2. Have a neighborhood meeting and find out how everyone is doing –
maybe create a phone tree to check in on people in need and take turns
helping out those in the greatest need. Form a prayer circle.

3. When you make a meal and have leftovers, pack up a to-go plate and
deliver it to homeless person – they are living in almost every city in
America.

In this world today…every little bit of help does make a difference!

Peace & Blessings!
