The real purpose of helping

I was there, alone sitting in my corner, my head bent and my eyes closed, plunged into my reflections because I was crossed and adsorbed by various thoughts, some deeper than others. When suddenly my mind froze on this thought or rather this question, pertinent enough  but also profound: "Why help these children?" It was quite confusing in my head because there were so many possibilities. So many reasons for someone to help others, that I decided to take a bit of my time, to find myself in all these answers. But this was an important war because the answer had already reached me.
And yes, all I had to do was to remind me of these words written in John 3 verse 16 : "For God so loved the world that he gave his only son so that whoever believes in him will not perish but he has eternal life." And also of the second commandment in Matthew 22 verse 39 :"You will love your neighbor as yourself." Or, to my aunt Myrtha who raised me and educated me as if I were her own son.  Or to those people who contribute and participate in the improvement of the lives of children and needy people, without asking them in return. Brandy, Keisha, Margareth, Katie, John, Scott, Eric, Mark, Richard, Debra and so on.
Thus, saying that we love others is different than showing that we love others. Loving others requires action. It is this push that you find yourself in the place of others, which pushes you further to see through the eyes of others, which makes you feel the pain and the needs of others and experience the same feelings of sadness or joys. This pushes you to give the best of yourself and do your best in the one but noble purpose of helping as much as you would have liked to be helped if your parents could not send you to school or if you could not send your children to school to  get what is needed.
Helping others is of the noblest stock and it has no price.

Please consider sponsoring one of our children to go to school, it is a small thing that will bring about great blessings and opportunities for that child.
