Sometimes it is good to step outside of your comfort zone. Life can get too boring if you don’t.
Tonight, I’m going to do something that I’ve never done before, I’m volunteering at a Shelter, to help those that have no where to go tonight and mind you, today’s high was in the teens, so tonight will probably be in the single digits. And why a cold weather shelter, I don’t know, why not? Our church has two nights a week that they go, check people in, get them situated, etc. and I thought why not?
My life has been very boring lately and more importantly, predictable. I needed something. I needed something that would shake my day/life up a little and to help me step outside of my personal comfort zone and do something completely different.
My hope tonight, is that I can be there to help someone else. I hope tonight, I can provide a kind word, give someone a warm meal or drink, give them a blanket or just sit and listen. My hope tonight, is that someone appreciates what I am doing. My hope tonight, is that they see how much I need this, as much as they need me there. My hope tonight, is that this is the first step of living outside of my comfort zone.
