Dan, thank you for this enlightening thoughts about giving and sharing on what we have to people who are in need especially in giving alms. Now, anyone who knocks at my door, meeting beggars on the street asking for food or money … sharing is the key. It doesnt matter how are they going to use it. All we need to do is to follow what the Lord has commanded us … Simply beautiful!

You are an angel to people like us.

God bless you and your family!

There are many among us who are weak; oppressed. And if they use the money for booze, drugs, or cigarettes….so what; we saw Jesus sitting there in someone’s weakness and oppression and we helped them. We helped Jesus! That’s all that matters.

Sometimes it isn’t as if I do not know these things are the right things to do but I begin to try to unravel the unknown within me.. the unknown being what would they do with the money.

Thanks a lot for the reflection.

In our judgmental society, it is too easy to join the crowd; but being a follower of Christ usually means going against the norm.

However, this does not automatically lead us to do such an action. This is especially because we are too afraid to share because sharing means losing. And, we judge other’s motive before giving. Lord, please forgive us!
