Love Your Neighbor

Love your Neighbor As a single parent who is trying to make the most out of every situation: it is so important to: Love your Neighbor. My pastor talked about this on Sunday as I watched church online live. Yesterday, I gave my wonderful friend some baby stuff from my daughter. Her sweet baby will be born in June. I don't always have the money to give, but try to be generous with my time and what I do have. I also realized through being on my own and "flying solo" that there are things you can purge. This week I had an incredible experience at McDonalds. I know it's not always the healthiest place for me to eat, but it's the main drive through by where I live. As I went there the worker, who I know and love, gave me some extra nuggets ( my obsession) as I was with my niece. I had to sit and wait as they prepared the fish sandwiches. The manager then came out and said that since I had to wait for so long, that my next meal is on "us." For an average individual: this may seem like nothing, but for a single parent or anyone who struggles to make ends meet: What a blessing. This week has been difficult as I am waiting on a check to go through. My bank account unfortunately is under 50.00. I am sharing this to be real. I see so much more value in things now. I know that this may be a more difficult season, but it will soon come to pass. It is so important to love on people. God has given so much to us, that we really, truly can share. ❤️ Therefore, love your neighbor. Yes, it's not easy, but so important.
