A Silent Partner

So after much begging and pleading, I still have had no donations for my Light the Night Walk. But I am no longer disappointed. I thought I wanted to give and in order to give it meant trying to raise money for the cause. As a matter of fact I even offered services in order to try to meet my goal. Nothing worked! The day I posted my blog about treats a friend posted something on her facebook page. It was like a punch in the gut!

God is much more concerned with our private integrity, than our public recognition.

It made me think long and hard about what I had been doing. I don't think it was wrong for me to try to raise money for the cause. But did I really think about my purpose in all this. In the beginning I was inspired to help. My heart just jumped out there and registered with the site minutes after reading the information about the walk. Maybe God didn't want me to raise money, maybe my purpose was just to be there to say, "hey I am here for you." The leader of the walk group and I have never really been best friends. We talked occasionally in school and in passing. But for some reason I felt led to join. I am still not sure of my purpose in all this but I will work towards the private integrity, instead of the public recognition.

I will be a silent partner and try to help in anyway I can. Thank you for allowing me to be apart of your journey!
