After reading so many recent posts from people who are either in financial trouble, lonely, hurting, scared or depressed, I thought I'd re-post this YouTube video in hope of lifting someone's spirits for even a few minutes.

It's impossible to reach out through the Internet to everyone who could use a hug or needs to know that someone, somewhere cares about them. I am here to say that I care, and that I keep everyone in need in my prayers- always.

Whoever you are, wherever you are, you matter to me.

I believe the scriptures in any religion I know instructs us to pray for the needy, the abused and those down in spirit. Remember the stranger in your prayers is one way to be a Good Samaritan.
