Over the years I’ve had many conversations about outreach and inreach… one stands out right now, this man once shot down a woman who said she could not donate money for Bibles. She said instead that she would pray for the project. Mind you this was a chatroom conversation and so you know that this woman has some access to a computer, possibly her own. Not something I would take for granted, she may be living off the smallest amount of money possible and here is someone tell her that prayer is not enough… I was disappointed, his point was that there was always a way to help out beyond prayer and that you could FIND a Bible to donate if you were persistent. And I agree, but instead of making someone feel badly for not having that kind of disposable income, pointing them towards that place he knew of that would donate a Bible would have been more productive and uplifting.
Never presume to know what one person can do. That’s called arrogance.
Have a little faith, you faithless one.
Easier said than done, you say? Okay, so work on your faith muscle and don’t compare apples to oranges. Share your knowledge and rejoice that God has given you insight where others lack.
