My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread</b></i>  Author, Winn Collier -  AT THIS LINK  -  - tells of the efforts of in some way  a group of Christians to provide food and shelter to needy ople in the Horn of Africa affected by severe extended drought.      

And that’s exactly what all Christians should be doing - when we can - to reach out and give to feed and provide shelter for those in dire need (see photo), which challenges us to sew and reap what we can to help these who need God’s help.  But are we being God’s helpers …  to reach out and help those in need?               

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for giving me the opportunity to be Your help to someone in need … maybe even  today.           

My Prayer Today:  Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I’m praying that those who read with me here will join me to reach out and help someone in need today.      …  Amen
