WE ARE ALL BEGGARS
Do not look down on the man or woman by the road side
or at your place of worship who ask you for alms.
Do you not know that we are no better that man or
woman we consider as a beggar?
You have forgotten you too have begged to be in the
privileged position you are in. You are still begging to remain in the
privilege position you are in. You will
continue begging for your needs and aspirations. Why then do you feel you are
better than the one who asked for your help?
No. you are not better than him or her. If someone approach
you for assistance, say within you. I
too I am a beggar, so I must not hesitate to assist, it is within my power to
do so. If I do not somebody will render the help I refused to honour.
Do not consider yourself better than anyone you think
is underprivileged a beggar. No one ever achieve whatever achievement in life
without the assistance of another. Above all, favour from God whom we all look
up to for our sustenance, hope, dreams and aspirations.
God’s gift to some is manifold so that they too can
act like HIM by giving to those whom HE has placed on our way. Those you meet, those who come to you for
help.
If you do not give to the one who asked you for help
knowing it is within your ability, power and capacity, then you are holding on
to something that belong to that man or woman you whom
you consider a beggar.
Be human, have a heart of flesh, a heart full of love,
a heart full of compassion, a heart full of sympathy a heart full of
understanding, the heart full of mercy, and a humble heart.
We are
beggars. Gloria H.
