       The good Samaritain,  may not have been a Christian.
       He may have been us before we ever knew He was there to aid us.
       the ''World'' may try to get us down & out but He will come by
       or send someone. He used all  that he had at hand to help the
       man.
       I felt that ''Les Miserables'' show & film underlined these
       thoughts & prompts.
       A friend on Fbook said that his daughter asked if she could help
       an unescorted toddler who was selling fresh Oranges outside a
       shop. Mother said ‘’How would you do that’’ to her daughter; who
       was not much older, she said I could hold the Oranges.
       We see such needs around us every day. Recognition of this
       could be the first step to meeting these needs.
       There was a man sitting on the pavement crying, a man went past
       & halted some while latter to return.
       He also sat & the crying man poured out his woes & life. He had
       found someone who would listen as he had nobody to do so in his
       life.

       Challenging post ...I say challenging, because I so am so often
       " running" where ever I go. Not that I am ever late, but I
       always seem to be in a hurry.
       Are we "too busy" to notice a person in need? I have to say that
       I probably am  :-[
       At my age, how can my life be so 'important' that I miss seeing
       those around me? Yet, it seem to be.
       It says remove the beam out of your own eye first..too true. I
       get annoyed in banks and restaurants, line ups etc when people
       use their cell phones all the time.
       I say to myself " How can their life be THAT important that they
       feel they have to take that call."  YET...here I go, hither,
       thither and yon, always in a hurry, not 'noticing' those who
       maybe God may wishes me to see......and even "be there for".
       Good post.
