Community is breaking out everywhere!
I love it when I learn a lesson from "the poor" I have come to serve. Last night at Karing Kitchen, Philip, who has been at death's door with Hepatitis C, gave me a $10 donation. After his Interferon treatments he is recovering, his Hepatitis is in remission, and he has taken a job at the grocery store. He is bulking back up and looking forward to a career and a life! He wants to share from his "bounty" as a grocery sacker who still has no car and is renting a barely-habitable garage apartment! He believes he is a part of this community and that he has something of value to share; and he's right. He teaches and inspires and shames me! Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.....
