someone can't get high off of your smile and hug..

[Guest guest]

dear beloved,you don't have to give them money.you can give them your

heart.you can smile at them,give them a hug and invite them to a meal.you can

love them in so many ways besides giving them money.and it is not just in

america that people that are homeless use the money for drugs.in nepal the

homeless kids sniff glue in order to relieve themselves of hunger pains,which is

really the pain of the soul.

dear beloved,it is mainly because of he lack of love and pain expereinced by

people on the streets that they use drugs.it is to releive there lonliness.AMMAs

sun knows this first hand.they are me and i am them.you are them to if you

would,but open your heart to THAT.

 

so dear beloved child of AMMA,you don't have to give money to support anyone's

habit,just follow the example of AMMA and give them a hug.give them your heart

and feed their souls.you will find that it is you whose soul is being fed.it is

for the love of us that GOD has given us people to love and serve.when you give

a flower to someone,it is you that benefits the most.in other words,AMMA is

serving us through allowing us to serve them. you are love beloved.your heart is

pure,for AMMA dwells in it..LOVE AND SERVE.LOVE AND SERVE.LOVE AND SERVE!
