12313820_10204980601346511_5294737607131044786_nI had two Emma acts of kindness yesterday. First I bought the car behind me in the drive thru their food. I could see he had a Veteran hat on (older couple). The other was my best friend and her friends are helping out a homeless man. I sent down jeans/socks/underwear for him. He was overwhelmed at the thought of having “6 pairs of jeans.” They have also arranged him a hotel to stay in for a month as well as gift cards to eat, hair cuts, other new clothes, etc. He also has a small dog that they have arranged free vet care for. I also mailed down a new carrier for him to use for his dog(he was using a computer bag). Although there are some that are skeptical, he is completely alcohol and drug free. He and his mother were extremely close, and after his mother died he just lost it. His sisters say he is a loser and want nothing to do with him. He carries a bible with him and reads from it every day, stating “Just because I am a loser in this life does not mean I will be a loser in my eternal life.” I hope the kindness of my friends along with the small gift I gave is enough for him to turn his life around.

God bless and Merry Christmas!
