Reach Out and Touch Somebody's Hand

The situation we face worldwide is a great reminder that God giveth and God taketh away! Everybody is being forced to humble themselves and change their selfish ways. It's not about you! It's about what you do with the wealth you have been blessed with that is in question. Money and wealth are NOT evil. It's the LOVE of money that is... When you are willing to lie, cheat and steal to attain money just so that you can worship it, is what is wrong! These are the people who will feel the pain the hardest because they have misplaced their confidence in money, material things and their title.

The financial crisis we are in can be likened to a natural disaster, it is the Great equalizer and reveals the true face of humanity. It will not discriminate. It will not care what color you are, what class you are from, what religion you are from or whether you are straight or gay. God will send the very people you are having a hard time accepting to lend you a helping hand in your time of need. Will you become an instrument of God's will and help those who need rescuing. How will you respond? A little LOVE and KINDNESS goes a long way and transcends all things!

"Out of suffering comes the serious mind; out of salvation, the grateful heart; out of endurance, fortitude; out of deliverance faith." by John Ruskin ( (English Writer and Critic of art, architecture, and society, 1819-1900)

Reach Out and Touch Somebody's Hand ~ by Diana Ross

Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can

Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can

(Just try)
Take a little time out of your busy day
To give encouragement
To someone who's lost the way
(Just try)
Or would I be talking to a stone
If I asked you
To share a problem that's not your own
We can change things if we start giving
Why don't you

Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can
Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can

(Just try)
If you see an old friend on the street
And he's down
Remember his shoes could fit your feet

(Just try)
Try a little kindness you'll see
It's something that comes very naturally
We can change things if we start giving

Why don't you
Reach out and touch
Why don't you (Why don't you)
Reach out and touch somebody's hand

Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can
Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can
