Donate please

Fish dishes:____________________________
I hate the fact that there are so many poor people in the world. I hurts me so much that my throat constricts and I become tearful. I look around me and at my life and I thank GOD a million times. Compared to some, I live in heaven. Gosh, why am I so ungrateful most of the time.

Mom called me to ask if I knew any charities to help an orphaned acquaintance of hers. His father passed away when he was only 10 years old and his mother moved back to her native country. The poor soul lives in a dumpster and is in debt to his ears.

At the sound of the sunset prayer, I clenched my hands tight and hoped from all my heart that I am able to help this acquaintance. Please, GOD, show me a way of helping others. Let me be able to eliminate the status of at least one poor person off this earth.

Charity may be a good way but how do we truly know that the moola we donate does not end up in the wrong pockets.

Everyone deserves a warm shelter they can call home and food on their plates and security in their lives. Everyone, I think. But then I remember that GOD tests us in many ways. Chere Dieu, you are wisest and know why things are this way.

May GOD bless us all.

Till we meet again,
Sedeso
