Late, but not too late

Some of my ideas or leadings seem to come at the last minute. I might be working on a sermon and get this idea to have someone share their testimony, which would perfectly illustrate my point. Unfortunately, it's Saturday afternoon that I think of this and very few are willing to share on that short of notice. My latest idea is no exception to the rule. As a church we usually try to do something to minister to people in our community around Thanksgiving. We have had Thanksgiving dinners at the church for those who had no place to go and we have even delivered prepared Thanksgiving meals to some who receive meals on wheels. This year, Lloyd and I were going to be out of town on Thanksgiving so preparing a meal for the community wasn't a great option. So I got the idea of giving out Thanksgiving Baskets to some people in our community and seeing if any of our LIFE groups would be interested taking up the cause. Of course this was last Wednesday, just a week before Thanksgiving.
