As I was growing up, my family was often blessed by food gifts from charity. I learned a lot from countless meals of plain beans and rice. I remember watching my mother cry over a gift of groceries. I learned to be grateful for every single thing in my life. Though I grew up without an abundance of material things, I was richly blessed and I never went to bed hungry.
There may never be anything more beautiful to me than a full pantry. The monotony of grocery shopping as an adult is countered by the overwhelming gratitude that I am able to go to the store and purchase what we need every week.
If you were hanging out with me here on the blog last year, you'll remember that we participated in a food drive through Feeding America and together we raised almost $5,000 to help feed the hungry throughout the holiday season.
Once again, as the end of the year approaches, I would love to get as much food as possible into the homes of those who need it. Every dollar you give through our Virtual Food Drive helps provide TEN meals for people in need. We can work together to make a HUGE impact in many lives this holiday season.
