Food Recipe for the Soul

"Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink.... Is not life more than food...? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?" (Matthew 6:25-26)

Give me a heart of compassion, Lord, so that I may share my food with those who have none. Amen.
