Jan. 23, 2016. KAYLA'S HULA-HOOP As I entered my local Goodwill yesterday, I was pleasantly surprised to see a cute little girl swirling a hula hoop around her waist. She was probably 6 years old. If you looked up "cute" in the dictionary you could see her face. We exchanged pleasantries about her hula-hoop abilities before I began my search for my latest "diamond in the rough."
By the time my cart become loaded with garments to audition, this adorable little girl approached me with a look of disappointment. She approached me and relayed her sad news. Her Dad told her to stop playing with it and put it back. I suggested she go ask her Daddy if he would let me buy the hula-hoop for her. Turning lickety-split on her heels she ran to ask her Daddy. He came over to meet the person who made her daughter an offer she couldn't refuse. When I asked him if he would let me give his daughter this gift, he didn't want to accept my offer at first, but a few moments later he agreed. My heart swelled with joy at this opportunity to make someone's day. I told my new little friend to do something kind for someone else someday. She agreed.
This experience made me see that God’s light and love really can (and does) shine through me. By this one act of kindness, Little Miss Kayla and I both received a cherished gift. Thank you God!
While I am glad Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations are over, I look ahead to 2015 hoping to be a better manifestation of the Fruit of the Spirit than I have been this year.
I was able to upload a picture to my page on this site but I still can't figure out how to change my generic profile picture using my uploaded picture. I tried sending a message to the website but when it asks me to drag a symbol into the circle so I can "verify my humanity" it does not allow me to drag it. It only allows me to save or view the image which does no good. Please advise. Valerie Garrison
