Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.—Proverbs 3:5–6 (NIV)
Sometimes volunteering might seem like a thankless task, but the truth is, when you lend your time and energy you benefit as well. If you feel like your best efforts are hardly making a difference, remind yourself that every little bit of generosity counts and that you are blessed by caring for others.
Heavenly Father, help me to give in faith.
