Sometimes God uses a Christmas Tree to give hope
I have been sick for a long time; diagnosed with Sarcodosis in 2010 they believe I actually had it since 1994. I had to cut my hours of working because it will cause a problem with my trying to get my disability.
Over the past month, my hood has had several of its young people murdered. Some of them on freezing nights. The hood gets a break from shootings and Shot Fireds during the cold season. We lost several people this year.
I also became an empty nester, my youngest left the next on Nov 30, 2017. With all this stress and sadness going on I got the blues and I was feeling hopeless. I was losing my faith and any hope I had was gone.
Then I got a text someone donated a Christmas tree to me and it would be delivered the 18th of December. I was at work but when I got off the tree was there. I noticed it was a big tree, the tree I always wanted but couldn't afford. I also got ornaments and a gift for me. Only God knew this was the tree I always wanted. I knew then that it would be fine.
The next day my Social Worker and nurse delivered presents for my grandchildren. Today I picked up additional gifts for Christmas from Gisele Fetterman, the First Lady of Braddock. I am truly blessed.
I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
