Helping Others, God's Purpose For His Children!

Helping others, who has the time? Our platters are full and running over! My goodness, we are not able to spend but very little quality time even with our own family, how in the world does anyone expect us to Citrix 1Y0-700 practice test find a slot in my life for helping others?
Sadly, this statement would probably fit most of us quite well. Oh, it's not that we don't think about it and have every intention of helping others, the simple fact is, we just don't have the time. And if perchance someone should need a few extra dollars to make it through the week, that is most definitely out of the question! Helping others is one thing, but helping others financially is an altogether different creature. Who has the extra money to give someone a handout anyway? It is back to school time and the kids need all new clothes and don't even think about me sacrificing my "green fees!" That eighteen holes on Sunday morning is the only relaxation I get and I ain't Citrix 1Y0-800 practice test giving that up for nobody or nothing! Sound familiar!
Believe it or not, there is a reason that God said in His Word that it is better to give than to receive. I would like to tell you that I am the most giving person in the world and that I never let the opportunity of helping others pass me by unattended. But I would be lying.Truth is I allow "my busy schedule and my lack of available funds" excuses, to cause me to miss out on many a blessing. Oh, I always come up with some good, conscience soothing justification, but I know deep, down inside that I am shirking my responsibility as a believer in Christ. What an example He set for helping others! I must say I am often ashamed of my own selfishness.
There is no excuse! God places a very high priority on helping others. Who do you think He uses to help that poor, hungry, homeless man? Does He come down with a heavenly meal prepared by the angels and lay it in his lap, or does He rather, send this poor man across the path of one of His earthly children, whom He has blessed with the means to help him? Our heavenly Father has left us down here for a divine purpose. He uses us to carry out His will on earth. The problem is, I don't think He is getting much good, consistent service out of most of us.
There are hundreds if not thousands of ways of helping others. I can think of countless ways others have helped me in my 56 years. I have been helped spiritually,mentally, physically, financially on numerous occasions, just to mention a few. But that is an article JN0-343 for another time.
There is nothing more rewarding than helping others from a sincere heart of compassion and concern. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, it truly is more blessed to give. I challenge you and myself, to stop using excuses and start today, helping those whom the Lord sends your way.
May the Lord bless and use you in a great and mighty way!
