"Suppose someone has enough to live and sees a brother or sister in need but does not help. Then God's love is not living in that person." I John 3:17
Leo Tolstoy, the great Russian writer, tells of the time he was walking down the street and passed a beggar. Tolstoy reached into his pocket to vie the beggar some money, but his pocket was empty. Tolstoy turned to the man and said, "I'm sorry, my brother, but I have nothing to give."
The beggar brightened and said, "You have given me more than I asked for - you have called me brother."
To the loved, a word of affection is a morsel, but to the love-starved, a word of affection can be a feast. - He Still Moves Mountains
