well.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

    To reach out to others in their time of need, sharing God’s love, reaps a harvest of blessings. It is then that we have fulffilled our purpose, I feel, by leaving a handprint of love to soothe the pain by covering it with God’s blood that has already been provided. He has already made the sacrifice, we are just sharing it with others. That is happiness in and of itself, just reaping a harvest of blessing.
