I’ve
always been better at destruction than construction. Have a remodeling project? Call me to get rid of the old stuff. So, projects like Habitat for Humanity are
best left for others. When it comes to
charity, you have to know what you’re good at.
All the
times that I’ve heard the people at church ask for volunteers to do a job for
Habitat, I’ve wondered about the people moving in to the house. Is the house empty? Do they have anything to put in the
house? I began to think about how cool
it would be for them to walk in the kitchen, open a cabinet and see dishes,
glasses or pots and pans. A drawer could
be holding towels or silverware. When I
inquired about it, nobody knew what happened once the house was built.
It
sounds to me like a housewarming party is in order. So, send out some invitations, make some hor
d’oeuvres, and ask guests to bring a gift to donate to building a home out of
the house that was built.
