Is it enough?

Well, I’ve been down due to minor surgery and then a major cold. I’m still snotting and coughing but I now believe I will live.

It’s been a little odd because I’ve seen the news about hurricane Katrina but there’s been little I could do but pray. I’ve sat on the sofa and wondered if it is enough? I finally got back to work on Friday and the company was matching donations to the Red Cross. I gave what I could and I sat at my desk and wondered is it enough? I made it to church on Sunday and tried to stay away from people. I didn’t want to infect them with this long lasting virus. We set aside our usual service to have an open discussion on what we as a body of Christ can do. We may (or may not) open our building as shelter, we will gather food for an emergency pantry, we will put together clothing for the people being discharged from a local hospital that have nothing to wear. Some members are willing to take people into their homes. But I still wondered, is it enough? I left church and little princess and I hit the store. We put together 4 bags of hospital discharge clothing, complete with underwear, top, bottom, shoes and bra and delivered it to the hospital chaplain. Is it enough?

No one can answer my question because there is no answer.

I’m not going to make promises or pledges but I am going to keep doing what I can and keep asking, is it enough?
