Some People Go Through Life Feeling That They Had No Purpose or Talent and Therefore Were Expendable...

Some folks from their tiny childhood ever could do anything right.
Others could have been productive as a child or youth had they had another take interest and show them how.

Some could busy themselves creating their own tasks...painting porches...or cutting grass for Dad...
Others need to be taken by the hand and shown every step of how to do anything from brushing their own teeth to combing their own hair.

Some folks cannot learn from a book regardless how many hours of the best and patient instruction that could be offered at any cost.

Some can only hear the voice of The only True Good Shepherd who is not only Seated upon HIS Holy Throne above the clouds and blue...WHO Leads them with HIS Voice in the stillness of their hearts.

I grew up where my value was highest when not at home...but visiting the Mom's and Dad's of others who knew how to both teach with kindness and affection....who were never critical without purpose....

Whose homes I longed to be a permanent fixture in ....so that I could learn to be able to teach my own Mom and Dad.

GOD always in spite of my parents inabilities...gave me others to teach me what my parents knew not themselves.

However many who had difficulty learning by traditional means like me...
Never had the luxury of knowing The Only Triune GOD in the sky as I...
And therefore had no one to love them and guide them as I.

I always knew before I could stand on my own that this made me not better than anyone else...
But rather more responsible.

While some of those who had not the gift of loving neighbors and Boy and Girl Scout leaders...
Ended up in jails or even prisons stealing their bread because they were hungry and knew not how to be fed...

I being held to a much higher account by Almighty GOD because I knew HIM from the day I was born and they have met HIM not...

My husband and I have dedicated our lives together to teaching these men in jails and prisons
The Carpentry Trade that when released they can be role models in their communities and lead those who once wore their own shoes and these men will then never sing the blues but sing for joy that though they once were never needed...

Now they not only have ppurpose and can fit in regardless to situations they happen to stumble upon..
They know how to become the integral part that another may not be lost.

See William's site http://www.thecarpentersfriend.com/ call our write him through his contact page and ask him how your donations can make a difference...hiring and training carpentry teachers, providing tools, work benches, educational DVD's etc... to teach in a prison setting that when released. they will be no longer the burden that I was to some....but now contributors and assets to their communities.
