It made me feel good inside that I was helping the people at the City Rescue Mission Thrift Store yesterday. I felt that I was doing a God-like awesome action. Yesterday I was hanging men pants and putting them on the rack, I was helping sorting out woman shirts in the right sizes, and I was also hanging up dresses. The lady that was showing us around told us that even if we were not literally feeding the homeless, were still feeding them by giving money to the place where they eat. When we got there it felt different because we were working in a place that had people we didn't even know. The lady also said that the reason the government doesn't give money to them because they talk about God and the government doesn't like it.
I was expecting a Thank you because we were helping and doing Godlike manner. When I was doing the work I was given I was thinking to myself that there are a lot of people who donate and care about the homeless. The people were extremely nice to us and showed us what to do. I like to help people who need food, clothes, and a place to sleep. When the lady told us that they only have eight people working there I was thinking "Oh my goodness, that is definitely not enough people to run one big store." I sometimes wonder what its like to be living on a street with nowhere to go and nothing to eat.
I think the reason people should donate to the City Rescue Mission because they need to think of others and not their selves. Some people donate because thrift stores ask for donations and things that can help keep their store from closing down. When people donate they take their time to give the stuff they either they don't need or don't want to the thrift shops. When people help others they are taking the time they could have done something else but instead they are doing the right thing. Sometimes its good to help others because its what God wanted you to do in the first place.
