Just got back from a trip around Salisbury at 4 p.m. on the Saturday before Christmas (Dec. 22).
Two reflections... we took the Christmas gifts and food basket to the family we were to deliver to. Our church adopted 3 single parent families for Christmas and we bought gifts for the parent and each of the children along with that, we filled a clothes basket with canned and boxed food items and a spiral ham. The mom came out of the house almost in tears saying, "This is such a blessing for us. God will surely bless you for doing this!" And then she saw the food basket and was blown away... she just couldn't believe it! And when she saw the clothes basket that the food was in... she said... "And now I have something to put my clothes in." When we left, she gave us each a hug and said, "God bless you!"
Then we went to the mall to pick up Emma and a friend of hers... the traffic was HORRENDOUS!!!! It was lined up all the way around the mall in both directions! I have never been in that kind of traffic here!
