Birthday Tape vibe: I want to believe
Brisk Texas mornings make getting out of bed just that much harder. Tack on that it’s Saturday, and it becomes almost impossible. Admittedly, I thought about backing out of packing Thanksgiving baskets. I know. Shame on me. After an hour of wallowing, I made my way to the volunteer event.
When I got there, I was greeted with extreme warmth and lots of people all trying to do some good for the holidays. With Bennie and the Jets playing in the background, we packed baskets full of holiday goodies for a traditional Thanksgiving meal. Over 85 baskets were packed. Not only did we pack baskets, we ended up delivering baskets to the families that needed them today as well.
The whole event was organized by Village Heights Church. Today’s Birthday Tape is dedicated to that church for all the good they did today. Today was a great reminder of how much heart exists in a community. Even on days when it seems like no good exists, it’s still there. You just have to look a little harder for it.
