Helping Strangers: A Risky But Blessed Practice

One thing I always desire is for the world to reach a point where love is so abundant that we see others as ourselves.

Sadly, most people only open their arms to their loved ones and neglect others. Some can go beyond that and care for others but with the condition that they are people they know.

There are certain people who only render support to those they know, any other person is not their concern. No matter how much they are moved to help, if it is not an acquaintance, they fold their arms.

But there was a time when strangers were regarded as angels, people longed to be of help to those they didn't know. K

In fact, the feeling of helping someone you have never met before is heavenly, it's always as if there is a special blessing attached.

We were told stories of how certain people welcomed certain strangers into their homes and they were blessed through that act.

Looking at how times have changed and how people no longer entertain strangers, is very concerning.

Although I won't put blame on anyone because certain people took advantage of the fact that strangers are honored to cause pain to others.

Through helping certain unknown people, others got into trouble that cost them what they didn't plan.

The heart of people is truly bad, but should we fold our arm and give a blind eye to those in need who we do not know? For me, that's unfair.

The fact that people are evil doesn't mean that everyone is bad. Some strangers don't have bad intentions towards anyone, all they need is help and nothing more.

If you ask me whether people should bring back the habit of helping strangers or not, I will say we should bring back the practice.

Now that things are difficult for people is the time we need to prove our love towards humanity by supporting those we can.

Nevertheless caution must apply, we must be vigilant and act with wisdom. No matter how good hearted you are, there should be a limit to what you can do.

And it is very important to make certain enquiries in certain cases before giving help, especially in the case of giving accommodation or carrying goods for someone.

Many people have become victims of circumstances in such situations. In the name of helping a stranger, they got themselves into a mess.

And in the case where your instincts don't agree with certain help, it's best you let it go. Sometimes it can save us from trouble.
