I always give money to the people on the streets. If I have change, a few singles etc...I give that all the time! I pride myself on giving to people because it’s the “right” thing to do. But this morning I had a self check moment! I was coming off the freeway downtown and this man was standing there with a sign and I was a few cars back sitting at a red light. So i started to look through my purse for a $1 or 2 but I had no singles just two 20’s and I didn't see any loose change so I zipped my purse up and said to myself I will get him next time. I had my music blasting (JJ Harriston , After This ) feeling real good!! Then God said to me “So you can only help somebody with a few dollars”??? So I asked myself am I doing the right thing or the GODLY thing?? I immediately opened up my purse pulled one of those twenty's and gave it that man. I felt so good with myself so I turned the volume to MAX and enjoyed the rest of my drive to work with a bigger smile on my face!!! Now don’t get it twisted I am not rich by far. I get my OT hustle on a regular basis to keep things going in my world and that wasn't extra money either. Now, I did want that $20’s to take care of something but he needed it more than me so I gave up my want for someone elses need! Think about it do you really give everything that you can or just the bare minimum?
