Everyday Heroes: unexpected gifts

The Everyday Heroes series is intended to draw attention to kindness. It's purpose is to share stories of normal people engaging in acts of kindness. Why? Because I believe kindness is what changes the world.


Today's post is a little different. We were the recipient of kindness, and it is worth sharing.


Kenyon and I sold what we owned (with few exceptions) when we moved overseas. When we found a place to live we knew we would need to purchase furniture and other household necessities. I don't have to tell any adult the financial cost of such an endeavor. We weren't sure how we would accomplish this.


Though God has promised to provide for our needs, I felt incredibly responsible to figure out where we would sleep, eat and sit. Then something amazing happened.


A church we do not attend met our need.


Because of their generosity we have a fully furnished home. We have a bed to sleep in. We have a dining table to eat on. We have a couch to sit on. We have been blessed beyond measure, our cup runneth over.


just Sheri, the grateful recipient of kindness
