Driving through the city one morning I spotted a young adult,
possibly the father, brother, or uncle, of the grade school girl who trotted
beside him. One detail about the pair made me smile. The little girl had a
backpack, but she wasn’t carrying it. The guy carried the bag. Nothing unusual
here except that he didn’t carry it in his hand. No, he had that girly, pink
backpack firmly attached to his person, sporting it like he owned it. That’s
lending a hand. Good for you, guy!
Who hasn’t needed or provided help at some point?
Circumstances dictate when and how help arrives. Giving and getting help often
requires a sacrifice from the receiver and the giver. While the receiver might
give up pride or control, the giver might sacrifice time, money, security, or
something greater. Consider these sacrifices:

Although I am unfamiliar with this specific organization, the
video highlights an important topic. Make a decision and give family members
your yea or nay.
What sacrifices have you made and who has sacrificed something
for you?
