It also shows us to not be so quick to assume that a person has nothing to give to us because in the world's view, he appears to have so little; indeed, it may be we who are truly in need. Thank you for being faithful to share with us all the gifts Clarence has given you.

Especially today.<br />Not ten minutes ago as I was pouring my who-knows-what-number cup of coffee, I started stressing about what I'd be teaching tonight. I run the youth ministry at our church and on Wed nights I lead a program that focuses on social justice. This year we are concentrating on homelessness and working with the shelter that rotates between 11 different churches in our town. Our Wed night meeting is a 'reflection group' and (in my opinion) one of the most meaningful and deep conversations we've had arose around the topic of memorial services for members of the homeless community. That Clarence was even mentioned in a paper is unique- so often the death of a member of the homeless community is simply listed in a police report or in the coroners records. It is heartening to see such a beautifully written tribute that reflects the true humanity of a person- homeless or not. Ms. Callie and her husband reflect a Godly beauty that is an inspiration to hear about. <br />Anyway, it's only 9am here in Ca and already God is working in her funny ways- I can be your token 'hippie' reader from CA that refers to God as a she :) As the stress started to rise I thought, 'hold on. just take some time, read your blogs and then go to work and worry there.' BOOM- I come to your blog, read this and there God is, offering a chance for me to see a solution to my worries. Thanks Paige, and Ms. Callie, for being beautiful players in God's plan. <br />Now I'm late for work because I've spent so much time reading this piece and rambling here in my comment...Stefaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07023067681463547964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16518856.post-18183941542007310082012-02-08T11:37:03.249-05:002012-02-08T11:37:03.249-05:00Love, Love, Love this!

I am amazed and awed by what I found in the story you shared with us today. It's too long for me to explin why, but this post of yours today was an answer to prayer! Thank you!
