Charity


Bob Hummel

It is hard to imagine the agony in Port au Prince, Haiti.  So many dead!  For survivors, so much destruction and loss to fathom!    We gave.  We prayed.  And I believe that we as a Nation, as a Body of Christ, and as a Congregation, will continue to help.  And that is good.  And I hear on the news about other Nations, and an international community, helping the Haitians.  That too, is good.  But it can’t be enough.  There will always be inequalities in this world, and there will always be others who are not as fortunate.  How much should we share?  What are we to do?

Prayer:  Lord, your resurrection should convince us, that we should share what we can.  May your message, that we should love one another, guide us in our compassion and help for those who have less, as we share in the gifts that You have given us, even everlasting life itself.
