A Wonderful Newlywed Blog

The blog isn't what you'd expect, with lots of sweet stories about the amazing things one of them did for the other, but rather a sweet story about an amazing thing they did to learn about others, and out of that experience to help others. I've been reading the blog of this young woman's mom because she adopted a beautiful little girl from China and I love how she writes about her little girl. Clearly, the mom's heart for giving has been lovingly transmitted to her oldest daughter in a beautiful way.

In a nutshell, these newlyweds, Taylor and Frankie, have spent a couple of different weeks living off of the food paks a local organization gives to people in need in San Antonio (where one out of every four children is hungry). They found out what constituted a whole pak, then bought just that food and ate only that food. Even when it got monotonous. Even when they could look out their window at work and see some amazing San Antonio Mexican food at the restaurant next door. Even though they could afford to eat differently, they chose to stay within their food pak. After they were done, they had saved enough money to buy and donate 10 food paks for the organization that gives them out.

It doesn't take long to read it, but I think it will bless you and give you some true food for thought. I know it did for me!
