Feed the hungry

Hosea Williams

Ruth 2:15-17

New International Version (NIV)

¹⁵ As she got up to glean, Boaz gave orders to his men, “Let her gather among the sheaves and don’t reprimand her. ¹⁶ Even pull out some stalks for her from the bundles and leave them for her to pick up, and don’t rebuke her.
Sharing is an intentional act God ask of us. Glean means to pick up the left overs the rich farmers would leave behind.

Inspired by personal experience with and his vow to continue King's work for the poor, Williams may be equally well known as the founding president of one of the largest social services organizations for the poor and hungry on holidays in North America, Hosea Feed the Hungry and Homeless. His famous motto was "Unbought and Unbossed" (which was also the motto of former U.S. Representative Shirley Chisholm of New York City)

Hosea Williams began a feed the hungry one Thanksgiving day over 35 yrs ago in his home. Today his family on any given holiday will feed 25 to 30 thousand people at the Georgia World Convention Center. Along with providing haircuts,grooming aids,job placement and housing. Wow! what an outstanding legacy to leave. Hosea kids and grand kids have taken this to another level. Martin Luther King kids should take note. We can all pay our sin debt forward by giving.

As a random act of kindness today provide a meal to someone in need.  Be a Blessing give a Blessing!
