Today I was blessed to spend the day feeding the hungry with the Peace Ambassadors. In all faith traditions, we are called to feed the hungry.
Most of us think this to be the obvious, feeding those without food. But I believe there are those among us who are spiritually hungry or actually starving.
Volunteering and reaching out to those in need is not only feeding the physically hungry but its feeding all those who are spiritually hungry.
The joy experienced at the soup kitchen today was phenomenal. As we laughed, cooked, served, washed dishes, we smiled, sang and danced. Our spirits and hearts were filled to overflowing. This is the magic of love, this is the magic of service to others. Those who serve are truly those being served.
