Not sure why I am sharing this, but the Lord showed me this and that I needed to share this here.....

Nineteen months ago my children lost their grandfather. He was a good man, with a good heart. Harold would almost always have the front door standing wide open during suppertime. I never gave much thought to it, until one day the subject came up. They lived close to the RR tracks and a man once came up to them in the yard. Harold never missed a beat and asked the man to share supper with them. The story goes that the man ate very well and he looked to have needed the meal. From that moment on, the front door stood open, "just in case the man came back". As far as I know his open door policy never brought in more supper guests, but none the less it was open for those that needed a meal.

Maybe we should all open our doors at supper time, "just in case that man might come back".
Be compassionate of others, my brothers and sisters. You never know when HE might come back!

Serving the Lord,
Sky [dance]

Thank you for sharing. My husband bought two lemons last week and they charged him for two limes. Which meant he was charged 69 cents to little.( he did not know until we got home) The next time we were out
he went back to the store and gave the money to the manager who acted shocked that he would bring the money and give it to her.
