HELP FOR A NEEDY

No one is fully perfect in the world. Everybody has some inconsistencies of a sort, which he desperately needs the others to solve or fill for him. The richest man who does not have material problems needs peace, health, affection, respect, honor etc. from his own family and the world community where he resides; while the penniless and miserable wretch needs the help of all sorts. Businessmen need advice to pursue the end goals of their business plan, but when they do not get the necessary advice, they cannot achieve them. Parties to the case of a suit in a court of law need legal advice, but when they do not afford it, there may take place miscarriage of justice which may adversely affect them. Patients who do not have the necessary money for medication need free medical treatment and dispensation of medicine to cure them. The grieved that have lost relatives need consolation. They need someone from the neighborhoods to sooth down their fretting nerves that emanate from deep remorse. The layman who cannot afford training needs some free training. The most desperate person desires to be loved and cared for. And above and most important of all, the heavy laden with the life of this world desperately desires someone to approach them and share the word of God with them; but how can they hear the gospel without a preacher? The above scenarios are some of the illustrations I have just depicted to portray the unlimited notion of giving. Therefore, you can observe that the notion of giving is all-embracing more than you have ever thought, for you might have thought of it only as giving money and few other valuables. Also, it is true that whenever the idea of giving flashes across the retina of our eyes, the image that is formed is only loss-losing some thing; however, giving is not losing, but it is storing few stocks in the store and retrieving much more some days later. It is an opportunity to rise. It is an opportunity to grow in all aspects of life, if only one lives up to it faithfully. One of the biblical suggestions of means of blessing is through giving (Acts.20:35). Altogether, giving is gaining. If you have ever recognized the tremendous dividend giving can have for you, then you could not have been hesitant practicing it; and hence, your life could not have been the same. God is love, and because of this, he gave his only begotten Son for the salvation of mankind, becoming the most possible example for us to share our life with others (Jn.3:16). God has never made anyone empty of valuable things, but it is equally true that he has not given us the same things in equal number and quality except the life of his only begotten Son; and therefore, the necessity for interacting with each other-fellowship was born and has been in practice since then. Dear reader, I believe that your personal life is interwoven with God and all the rest of human beings for its sustenance; and this very fact makes your life to be not independent of God and your fellow human beings. This natural indebtedness that we owe both our God, and our fellow humans compel us to aspire for a fellowship that shares all the burdens every one of us faces in life. No one can be exempted from this debt to live in fellowship. However, trying to engage in any work to free oneself from this natural debt will result in the sufferings of the debtor. Whatever one gives or shares, he should do in the attitude of fellowship. And it is in this view that I am writing this book which I believe will change your attitude concerning fellowship and generosity. Happy Reading!
