Putting Things Into Perspective

Today we got to shop for a baby girl named Gabriella, she was our Angel Tree angel. She needs clothes for Christmas. Talk about putting things into perspective, it is so easy to get lost in our comfortable world and forget their are children who need clothes, food, shoes, toiletries, life's basic necesseties and things we take for granted every single day. My hope is that doing things like Angel Tree and Operation Christmas Child we can teach Ava the joy of serving and sharing with others and gratitude for all we have been blessed with. It was fun getting to buy little baby girl clothes again today and we tried to find plenty of warm and cozy things so little Gabriella will be warm through the winter. We hung her angel on the tree so we could be reminded to pray for Gabriella and her family.
