Under the Bridge

I know blogging has simply disappeared from my schedule, but I promise it is in good reasons.

This pass Saturday I spent time with my church and other churches within the southeast region serving in the community. This wasn't my first volunteer work, but indeed it was new in it's own way. We went to several locations where families and individuals needed attention and help. One place in particular were under an interstate bridge. I've always heard and seen on television of people living under the bridge, but never in my life have I came face to face with a bed area under the bridge. The incline to the top inside of the bridge was very steep and any wrong turn on their lay area could send them rolling down into traffic. Unfortunately no one was there for us to pray with, but we left a bag of food and a prayer on each site there.

How amazing we are blessed to have a roof over our head, food to eat, water to drink, and clothes on our back. Sometimes even I take that for granted, but seeing all these families and individuals struggle seriously makes me understand truly.
