It is a great privilege for all of us to be allowed to do anything for the world. In helping the world we really help ourselves.
We have to bear in mind that we are all debtors to the world and the world does not owe us anything.
The hand was made to give always. Give the last bit of bread you have, even if you are starving. You will be perfect, you will become God.
There's no higher virtue than charity. The lowest man is he whose hand draws in receiving;&he's the highest man whose hand goes out in giving
The world is just a playground, &we are here having good fun, having a game; & God is with us playing all the while, & we are with Him playing. God is our eternal playmate. How beautifully He is playing! The play is finished when the cycle: comes to an end. It is only when you forget that it is all play and that you are also helping in the play, it is only then that misery and sorrows come. He plays in every atom; He is playing when He is building up earths, & suns, & moons; He is playing with the human heart, with animals, with plants. We are His chessmen; He puts the chessmen on the board and shakes them up. He arranges us first in one way &then in another,& we are consciously or unconsciously helping in His play. And, oh, bliss! we are His playmates!
When you give a morsel of food to the dog, you worship the dog as God. God is in that dog. He is the dog. He is all and in all.
A fanatic is a fanatic simply because he expects to get something for himself in return. As soon as the battle is over, he goes for the spoil
You must also remember that the world has God to govern it, and He has not left it to our charity.
Make no conditions and none will be imposed. Let us give out of our own bounty, just as God gives to us.
