Soles 4 Souls - Clean out your closet & then send them in!

I stumbled upon this link on another bloggers site. There are so many smart, industrious, Godly, brilliant people out there. This site is looking for shoes for charity. You can donate on-line through pay-pal if you are so inclined. Reading through the stories, I am touched. I can't imagine not having shoes. I love shoes, even though most shoes don't love me, unless they are expensive and narrow. See, I have 'pencil feet'. & like cheap earrings... I can't wear cheap shoes, but really, when the alternative is no shoes, I'll wear free, cheap, wide shoes any day. Read the stories, and you'll see what I'm talking about.
Along those lines, .......
Tonight Jack & I prayed and we thanked God for our food. We are able to pick what we want to eat, at least he can eat what I pick for us to eat. But we have choice, and we have fresh food available to us. So many don't. So many go without, and in the stories I read on this site, many are searching through trash to find food.
Matt 25- mentions 'the least of these' that if we've cared for, fed, clothed one, we have done it to Him. It was mentioned today from the pulpit that we can't really love God if we don't love our fellow man. Doug, you were right. Another point you made, in Proverbs class- about being wise with brain wisdom, but not reaching out or showing our love for mankind. We've really missed the point. I've been entrenched in a study lately on the Images of God from the Bible, including names of God. A book I highly recommend is by Jukes, The Names of God. It was written sometime ago, now in republication, but truly in some places it reads like a prayer. Brains/wisdom and a heart for God's will. It's an amazing book, with insights into the people of the Bible and the lesson's learned through God's revelation of Himself.
Something to pray about, having a heart full of knowledge of God, but not just stopping at wisdom.
