Clothes

Great idea, friends!  Do you have any clothes that you keep around because you think, "yeah... I wear this a couple of times a year, plus it's always great to keep because..."  Well.  There's always a reason, isn't there?  But you know what?  I can guess that there are probably some people at your church, or people that drop by your church to see if there are any clothes that could be spared.  I'm not a high price shopper myself, as I love to find vintage goodies at Goodwill, etc.  But there are some things that I can spare.

So why not take about 10 minutes to go through your drawers, perhaps looking waaaay deep into them, waaaay back into the corners... yeah.  You're gonna find some stuff that other people need.  Yes, NEED.  You might choose to keep it around "just in case."  But when you think of it in the way that someone "needs" it, you'll get your little behind up and take it to where it can be of good use.  There are certain things you can give to Salvation Army/Goodwill, but there are also things that you can give to your church or school, where the clothes will be given away, rather than sold.  Just a thought.

There will always be poor people in the land.  Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land.  Duet. 15:11  Hear that?  He commands us.  Whoa.  Ok.  So maybe we should get on that...
