So i've ranted about Starbucks in my last post. But tonight up the hilly, bumpy dirt road to my house, I got convicted. I call myself a Christian, bust in the 6 almost 7 years I've been here in Romania, what have I really done to show His love to my "neighbors"? Sure I've helped my immediate next door neighbor after her house burned down, but apart from that, what I have I really done to show these people that I'm not the "American Slut" that I know they call me?
The holidays are fast approaching, and I know that there are a lot of old people and orphans going without this holiday season. So what I want to know is this: if you are willing to donate some money towards food to feed those in desperate need in the old Eastern Bloc, please let me know. I would like to have something to back me up when I go to local businesses, hotels, restaurants, etc. with my plan.
I've said in my last post and on Facebook posts that Christ could care less whether or not a coffee shot celebrates his "birthday"; that we should be focusing on what Jesus commanded us believers to do..... and if what is going on in Syria with Russia is any indication, then we should be prepared, we shouldn't be focusing on trivial matters like Red Cups for coffee containment, but rather the container that holds a persons soul.
So who's with me? I kind of need to know what kind of support I have before starting a "go fund me page". I know that if this is something He has placed within me, that the money will come. But of course I'm gonna be mu human self....God knows me, He knows I'm gonna be obstinate!
C;mon people let's show the world HIS love!

Things are pretty tough in my area. I don't know how much help you'll get, though the cause is good. Maybe you could just do things for them that don't cost money. You might want to stick with helping the old ladies, however, if some rascals are calling you such things.
I wish I could help, but we're struggling to keep a roof over our heads right now.
