I've had some financial difficulties this year and last night members from my ward dropped by totally unexpectedly with three boxes of food they had received from our local food bank. They were out delivering boxes to those in need. While I could have made it on (primarily) peanut butter and popcorn (plus some left overs after Christmas) until the first of the month when I get my next paycheck, it was very much appreciated. While the church knows of my financial difficulties, they had no way of knowing that my cupboards were as close to bare as they were. I told the guys that dropped off the welcomed packages thank you, but that just didn't seem to be enough.
Have you ever been on the receiving end like I am this year, or have you ever been one to go knocking on someone's door and give them food bank stuff? I'm so incrediably grateful, and I know God's hand is in this. He does know us, and our needs - expressed and unexpressed.
