Give to others like Jesus did!

Yesterday was a great day :) Special Olympics Swim Meet was extremely tiring, but I felt good about helping out. Jesus was always a very giving and loving person, and we were made in his image. Therefore, we need to be just like him! Before entering Spaghetti Warehouse last night from a friend's birthday dinner, Jesus sent an angel to me. I was looking for where to pay for the parking because there was a parking meter. Then, a lady came up to me, and said, "You don't have to pay," & pointed to a sign that I obviously did not see. As I was leaving Spaghetti Warehouse, I was approached by a middle-aged African American man. He saw that I had a to go box in my hand, and told me, "I haven't had anything to eat all day, could I please have some of that?" In my head, I was thinking that he must have been really hungry for him to be so willing to eat a stranger's left overs. I said, "Yeah, sure. God Bless You!" After saying 'God Bless You' multiple of times, he said it back to me. When I got home, I regretted not saying more to him. It was such a perfect time to bring someone to Jesus, yet fear took a hold of me at the moment. I believe that Jesus brought the first lady to me to show me his love, and he wanted me to show this love towards the African American man. Thank you, Jesus for showing me little hints that prove that you are always next to me and are always taking care of me<3
