I heard a story of a family who many years ago had a pay day and off to the grocery store they went. They were on a very tight budget with two daughters in college, a son growing up, mortgage payment, car payment, utilities etc. But they were so happy as life was so filled with hopes and dreams and they knew that they were making progress in several important ways. They were doing their part, like so many others were doing, to lead the way with hard work and a desire to see their children's dreams come true.
Later that week the phone rang with their daughter asking if they could send her some money for groceries. The family said that their funds were low but their cupboards were full. They knew they would be able to send her some groceries with a friend who would be making the three hour trip the following day to the city where their daughter lived.
Without hesitation their friend agreed. Several bags of groceries and some fresh baked homemade cookies were delivered to their daughter the very next day.
That was a very special grocery delivery!!!
