Quote: Hi Pauline, I hope that you are feeling better. I would like to share a true story that happened just recently. As you all know, Shirley and I have not been doing so well money wise. Our food ran out before the end of the month this month. We have been getting by on soup and crackers. Last evening, we used the last of our frozen chicken, the last of our vegetables, and the last of our pasta. As we were eating, Shirley asked, "Honey, what are we going to do until the first?" I replied, "Pray." As we were finishing up our meal, a knock came on the door. I opened the door and our upstairs neighbor was holding several bags in her hand. She had purchased some food that her family didn't like. She asked if we could use them. With tears in my eyes I said, "We sure could." They were Turkey meals, turkey, brocolli, and stuffing. These were the steam meals that you steam in the micro wave. There were seven meals all together. This morning, our next door neighbor, 94 year old Mildred knocked at the door, Shirley opened the door and Mildred was standing there with a chair with wheels on it and a box. Mildred asked if we could use some extra food. Coffe, Butter, Corn on the Cob, Sausage, a couple cans of soup, and Tuna Fish. We are no longer worried about how we will make it to the first. I had been quite upset that none of the organizations that are suppose to help, would. Plus, even though we are at the lowest level that we have ever been, our rent has been raised almost one hundred dollars a month. I just decided to put my hatred aside and just do the best I could. GOD Answered our prayers. Next month may be the same, however I will keep my ill feelings at bay, and just do the best that I can. GOD BLESS YOU ~Mike~ http://www.countryvalues65.com
