Sharing the Little that You Have

I'm always blown away by how inviting and sacrificial African families are when you come to visit them in their home.  The other day, we were visiting a family in a nearby village when the father sent the children to fetch a drink for us visitors.  This family lives on a small farm in the bush and makes ends meet through farming, raising pigs/cattle and running a small shop in town.

They're definitely not the type of family that will buy and keep coke around the house for daily consumption.  And here they were, offering the little that they had to us.  To say that I was humbled is an understatement.

It kind of reminds me of this passage from Leviticus 19:

33 “‘When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. 34 The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
