Thankful!!!!

My wonderful grandmother shared a story with me that I am excited to share with all of you.  On this year's cold Thanksgiving day, she was driving in town and saw a man walking on the sidewalk with only a worn down hooded sweatshirt.  She tells me that he was carrying a very large bag and appeared to be fatigued and in need of help.

She was on her way to our family thanksgiving celebration which always involves a warm house, lots of food, and great company.  She decided that she needed to turn around and offer a small gift of hope to this stranger.  She safely pulled up near this gentleman and offered him a small monetary gift.  He gratefully took it and was very thankful to her for her kindness!

She said she hoped this man was able to buy a warm meal but regardless of how he spent the money she felt the small gift was a way for her to show her appreciaton for the many blessings in her life!!
