As many have already experienced, the generous action of giving God's moneyaway can be difficult or, for some, very easy. Our family found it to bemore on the difficult side, rather then what we had expected it would. How to use the money wasn't the problem, where to use it seemed to be the issue. There are so many different ways in which we would have liked to make an impact with such a precious opportunity. So anyways, hears our story of what we did after a lot of prayer.There is an older woman that works at the gas station where I fuel up everynight that has always been very nice and generous. This woman would on occasion bake some kind of bread or cookies or something of that nature and would bring them in to give out to the regulars that would come through. So after talking to her a little each night, and eating some awesome bread, I learned that she was a breast cancer survivor (x2) and she then proceeded totell me about how she used to bake all the time and bring things into sharewhen she worked there before. Before? Huh? Here to find out she had to quitwork because of the cancer a few years back, which was fine because herhusband was able to support them. Now that she is cancer free she had toreturn to work because her husband was put on disability. So the long and short of it is, we as a family decided to bless someone who is blessing others. We gave her the money with a little note thanking her for what she does. We figured she could use the money for ingredients or whatever she needed.
