💖 GIVING THANKS BY HELPING OTHERS 💖
California wild fire
The fire that decimated the town of Paradise, population 27,000, and surrounding communities has been big news recently. Officials are predicting people to be in shelters through the Christmas holiday, and many have lost everything. The wildfire has destroyed more than 14,000 homes and is considered to be one of the worst fires in California history.

When our friend Steffanie put up a post asking for help getting clothes for a family member who is from Paradise, CA, she said she didn't expect much of a response. However what she received surprised her. Many have written back with support including Mama and Papa Bear. We went through all of our clothes and donated 10 large bags of clothes to help the people who were victims of this wild fire tragedy.

Biblical view
Galatians 6:9-10 (NIV)
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Totally agree, everyone should be helping those that have gone through this tragedy or at least someone in your local community that needs a helping hand!
We're having severe fires here in our Karoo home in South Africa too @paradise-found. It is remarkable to see people band together in a crisis. Last year the arsonists were responsible for the loss of many farms, animals, homes and people. It included one entire coastal town. The compassionate aid that came in was mind blowing! ABBA uses us in His Hands to help His children. Blessed be His set-apart Name
Hope more help will come to those who were affected.And will be praying for their recovery and safety too paps.\n\nYou are such an angel to them , you are always a blessing to many. You and mama bear both have huge heart God bless you guys more and more 😘💞
