He Said No to My Beef Jerky.

Today, I experienced a valuable lesson. After I offered what I thought to be a kind gesture to a homeless man, I was met with resistance. I took the time on my drive home to reflect and calm down the emotions that flared up inside of me. I realized, the question was I asked myself, how often have I’ve asked for something and received it, but turned it away because I thought it was going to look different. This experience wasn’t about my action of giving, but more so about my action of turning things away. I always quote this verse, “ask and you shall receive,” I just need to add in, it may not always be packaged the way you envision it to be.
