Go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor. (Mark 10:21) - Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. (Amos 5:24) - God calls us to be open and engaged in responding to the needs of persons who do not have what they need for daily living. Sometimes that need is food, clothing, housing, medical care, training for a job, deliverance from injustices of the culture that prevails. The conflict between good and evil is on going and we must deal with it til the end of time and God holds us accountable. The story of the Good Samaritan teaches us that we cannot get by ignoring the need of suffering humanity. We are present to do what we can to care for our sister,brother,fellow human in the way they need..compassion.....this involves us at every level of life personally and in all the institutions of our world.
