Some people don't have the blessing of knowing their family roots.
And the reason why, seem's unimaginable!
My daughter and I attended a Film Festival on the week-end where one short story depicted this.
It spoke of and showed adults who as children, were placed in orphanages, because their families had no provision for them.
When they reached eighteen years of age, the streets became their home.
Rather than complain, or harbour a chip on their shoulders, they worked together with Habitat for Humanity, helping others gain a home.
They rejoiced to be a part of a helping team.
They work so hard,... and with cheerful hearts.
One woman helped for ten years, and then finally,
she was one of the recipients.

I cannot imagine living under the above conditions.
I had hardship when I was growing up, but nothing compared to this!

When we complain because we can't find the exact shoes we want?
Or afford a holiday, car, boat, or similar.
Let's remember those who are happy with nothing.
Those who smile and laugh at the simple pleasures of life.
Who appreciate giving without expecting.
And rejoice in the good fortune of others.
Check out the website below and search your heart about giving.
"But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret.
And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."
Matthew 6:3-4
