In our ever-changing world, God wants us to cry out for a release of Heaven into the Earth. We must be awakened to the vast need of people around us …and we must know we are empowered to respond. Each of us can make a difference and collectively the effect will be vast.
If you help the poor, you are lending to the Lord – and he will repay you! Proverbs 19:17 (NLT)
Living beyond yourself gives you perspective of what really matters in life, and causes you to be thankful. Albert Einstein said “Nobody is alive until they begin to live outside of themselves.”
There are things you may regret buying during this holiday season but you will never regret giving to the widow, the orphan, or the poor. This is not the season to close your hands, but it is the time to open your heart to those in need.
John & I truly believe this is a key to having a Heavenly perspective and remaining abundantly thankful.
With love,
John & Lisa
P.S. Hey! We would love to stand with you in prayer for your loved ones who are in need. We believe that you will be a light in their lives during this holiday season! Submit a prayer request.

I have done quite a bit of impulse shopping over the last couple days. Although a lot of it was for others and not because of Christmas, I did buy myself something that I already regret!
Thanks for this reminder to care about the things which God cares about. I'm going to do something about it :)
Didn't expect to find a comment on my page and especially from this organization, it's a blessing. Thank you for reminding me to not close my hands but to keep my heart open. Be easy! - Justin A. Rivaldo
