How Can You Help If You Have Enough For Yourself

It brought to my attention again the moment when I put into doubt of knowing what should I do upon somebody who need my help financially when I have just enough for myself.

We had a visitor, a sister in faith, named Jinky, who just arrived last morning for the purpose of getting her transfer paper moving back to her hometown.

I witnessed her sacrificed waiting for so long just to bring with her the paper. The signed paper was in the keeping of Bro. Rey who in time attended the monthly meeting of officers in the district.

We welcomed her as a guest in our house, entertained her, making the hours passed unknowingly.

But she was worried about then, because she never yet got her ship ticket 'til in the late afternoon.

He whispered through her words that she was need my help for financial because her money was just enough for a jeepney and a ticket fare. She planned to had a taxi if in case time would be her problem because she kept waiting 'til the very close time of her departure.

I was not able to response her directly because my mind and heart was in deep conversation of what should I do. Either to give my alloted budget for tomorrow important church activity or handed to her.

Until such time I was able to rethink my goal in life to be wealthy in order to help more people. It strengthened my willingness to pursue my goals, as being reminded with the situation. I considered of prioritizing the most important, that was my prior budget allotment.

And what I did to help was gave her the best advice to take an alternative by just asking the exact route going the ship yard.
