I spent some time today with a woman I know only slightly. She is someone who is in great need, and I wanted it see if I could figure out how to help her. Before I went to her house, I bought her some food.
We spent some time sitting on her porch. She is in a difficult situation. I asked her what she needs. I listened. I prayed for her.
Little Warrior was with me. He brought her something too - he brought her sunshine. She has never smiled at me. But she laughed at Little Warrior. He wore his purple super hero cape and declared that he is building her a new house. He detailed all the tools he would use. She loved every second of it.
I may have brought her food for her stomach, but my little boy brought her food for her soul.
Precious. Just precious.
