Affirmations:
I am willing to say YES to life.
I allow my whole self appreciate and enjoy everything I
share.
I am open to watch the Good that comes from doing Good.
Life works, because I am willing to do the work.
When you
see a need, fill it.
When you
hear a question, find the answer.
When you
see something needs to be done, do it.
When you
hear a call, answer it.
For each
one of us, there are callings everyday.
On the
phone, in our thoughts and what we know, there are calls to respond to.
If the call
comes to us, it is ours to do or find the right person to answer.
If there is
a need along the way, it is ours to do.
Have you
ever been turned away?
Has anyone
been told you “no” ?
Have you
heard explanations and justifications about how others cannot fill your
requests.
So you know
how it feels to be turned away with nowhere to go and no help to be given.
When we have
too much to do to be able to help, we need to step away and ask for help.
I have felt
for the six months the great need in South Lake County for children, families
and teens.
I have
wondered and looked for who and how this need would be answered.
I looked
for partners and resources without clear response.
And
so…..I heard……
“Why not me?”
“The need is so blatantly clear.”
“My plate is so full”.
“There must be a way.”
On Friday 10/26 we saw the mobile home across from
my Middletown Reunion ReSource Center for rent.
On Saturday we rented it beginning October 1, drew plans,
made lists of repairs and needs.
We moved in the home furnishings in on Wednesday,
10/1 and the initial group of kids began.
Many more kids came on Thursday and work began to use it
with joy for the good of our community.
Word of mouth, pictures hung and windows washed, energy
cleared, meeting of primary partners Fridays.
Yes, we need water filter, books, back yard gardens,
basketballs and backboard, clean up and more.
Yes, we want grants, donations, press releases, facebook
page and website, volunteers galore.
Yes, we would appreciate your positive prayers,
contributions and notes of encouragement.
“If you
want to accomplish something, give it to the busiest & happiest
person and it will get done.”
If each one
of us would do our share of housework, it all would get done quickly and
easily.
If we would
all handle our part with excellence and joy, everything would be completed
well.
If we all
would take full responsibility for our family, schools and community, the world
would work.
Together
there is nothing we cannot do.
Life is
meant to be teamwork for the good of all.
Build teams
at home and work, on the playing field and in life.
Get
together and do something good for the greater Good.
Appreciating
us each for doing what we can do with joy and gratitude,
Betty Lue
