Despite how we look at ourselves many of us are blessed beyond our own belief. God does this on purpose. He does this so we can help one another. The Word tells us that if we have something and see somebody in need we are supposed to help them. It is not our job to assess the reason for the need. It is just our job to help.
This applies to material goods as well as spiritual and emotional goods. Someone may just be in need of a simple hug, hello, or scriptural pick me up! It is our job as followers of God to give it to them. When we help someone we are also helping ourselves.
1 John 3:17 AMP
But if anyone has this world's goods (resources for sustaining life) and sees his brother and fellow believer in need, yet closes his heart of compassion against him, how can the love of God live and remain in him?
