As opposed to the people I know who seem to believe “When a friend is in need, make him jump through a bunch of hoops, lecture him on self-sufficiency and then walk away.”Texas. Yup.
Some of us recognize that yes, we really are brothers and sisters…and then there are born-agains and others who go to church…and abandon us to the real devils of penury and worse…let us accept those real blessings, our ability to loveand grow in its tasks and ways…
Ironically it is the born-agains and those that go to church that I see doing all the extra social work and helping out their fellow men without making a public scene about it … all the others are too busy going their own way to notice their fellow man, without wondering what angle they are running or what benefit they can get out of it themselves. If no benefit or recognition to be found, then they go on their merry ways.
