Dear Friend:
Stop for a moment and take a look at your shoe collection. How many pairs of shoes do you own? Do you really need all of them?
I asked one of our Esther’s Hope student’s a similar question recently and her answer left my heart aching. “One pair,” she said. My heart did not ache because she had one pair of shoes. My heart ached because the shoes she was wearing were terribly worn and torn, you could see holes as big as quarters, even though she tried to hide her feet under her chair. As I interviewed her, she squirmed uncomfortably, I could tell she wanted to sink through the floor because she felt unworthy. As a parent, I couldn’t imagine sending my child to school with such shoes. How about you?
