Greetings and Happy Friday!

This story comes form Joan Tungseth of Global Hope Network. It reminds me of Mark 12:41-43.

"In a small village outside of Nairobi, a wheelchair distribution was done by Living Water Board of Director, Mike Harris, 3 weeks ago. As the wheelchairs were assembled and given out, a woman walking on her knees was helped into her very own chair. Her smile showed her thankful heart. She was finally able to move around with freedom. Then suddenly a child was carried into the area - but no more chairs were left. There was great sadness. NO MORE CHAIRS. Carefully and slowly, the woman who so wanted a wheelchair slipped from her chair and gave it to the child who could not walk on her knees or crawl. Tears weld up in the eyes of those who were distributing the chairs. Later one of the group members remembered they had not been able to take all the chairs and this lady would receive a chair, later, but she would receive one. She didn't know this when she gave up her wheelchair.
