Tonight I learned that an important component of free food is not having to go get it. I've been told, and learned through experience, that people, especially college students, love free food. Tonight I had free food to offer, if one was only willing to drive/bike/walk the 2ish blocks to get it. Many people said no for one reason or another. It made me think of the love God has to offer us. He has said, it's here for the taking. All we have to do is go get it, reach out and take it! How many of us turn it down for one reason or another? How many of us miss out on blessings simply because we didn't take them? Shame on us?
Lord, help us to never shy away from your love and blessings, simply because we are too lazy, not willing to reach out and accept.
Amen.
