Overwhelmed by midterms? You can still create little revolutions in the world around you. The following suggestions are included in Shane Claiborne’s “50 Ways to Become the Answer to Our Prayers”:
- Ask the next person who asks you to spare some change to join you for dinner
- Leave a random tip for someone who’s cleaning the streets or a public restroom
- Go through a local thrift store and drop $1 bills in random pockets of the clothing being sold
- Track to its source one item of food you eat regularly. Then, each time you eat that food, pray for those folks who helped make it possible for you to eat it
- Fast for the 2 billion people who live on less than a dollar a day
These are just a few of my favorites…find more at www.thesimpleway.org
