morning thought

I love it when the opportunity to show the love of Jesus just lands in my lap.(one of the reasons I love being in a third world country) A few weeks ago i visited an aids hospital, well its really not a hospital but just a place where people go to wait out the rest of their days. I was visiting with a guy about my age with aids. I felt a little useless, I mean what can I do for this guy, so I asked him, he said his feet were cold and asked if I could cover his feet with the sheet on his bed. I asked if he had any socks, he didn’t. I asked him if he wanted mine. I was humbled as I took off my socks and put them on his feet, it was one of those moments when I regretted the millions of times I was ungrateful and complained about useless stuff. We prayed together then he asked if I could come back. I will go back, I think we underestimate how a little time and a pair of socks can minister to the broken.
