ENOUGH

"You have lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter" (James 5:5).
 
I suppose that one of the sins that must grieve the heart of God the most is for a Christian to live in luxury while the world starves. The scriptures are packed with teaching directed towards sacrificing that others might have enough. I know that at my house, even when we say that we're out of food, we still have plenty.
 
Each week at Grace River, we have a basket available in which to donate food items for the food bank. We are currently resourcing the Windsor Food Bank. Take a moment today and grab a few cans of food that have been in your cabinet for awhile. Bring them to church with you on Sunday and put them in the basket. May we get in the habit of bringing something to donate every week.
