I was recently purchasing more items for care packages for FOCOS. Filling a buggy with approximately 60 boxes of toothpaste can cause some strange looks. One lady, though, didn’t give a questioning look and keep passing. She stopped and said, “Wow! That’s a lot of toothpaste. You must be gathering for a shelter or something.” I told her it was for FOCOS and what FOCOS was. She was amazed, and gave me $10, saying to, “Buy $10 extra for the FOCOS kids for me.”
I have had a few people do this before when they see me buy crazy amounts of items, but it still takes me by surprise every time. Especially after Christmas, when everybody’s money is a bit tighter, it is amazing to see kindness like this.
“The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.”
“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.”
“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”
We love you and your work and the purpose of your work and the Lord Jesus who is in the middle of it all. God’s Love and Blessings to “Your Children” !!!!
