"God might want you to extend his love by offering to baby-sit for the single parent down the street. He might want you to prepare a hearty meal for that lonely old man who lost his wife — and to sit and visit with him while he eats.

Are you willing to set aside your own comfort to touch someone else with God's love?"
— Amy Nappa
