Helping hands are better than Praying Lips...what do you say

Don't just pray for miracles in someone's life.. Pray that you can BE the miracle.

Better, both. Faith without acts is not faith at all. I am not sure if that's how the passage in the bible actually goes but it's a bit close. Sometimes though, when people come to me for help especially on the financial aspect, more often I have nothing to give. For that reason, I also think twice about asking someone for financial help. When in dire need though that's the time I gather my guts and beg. Thankfully, most of the time, help always comes. God really provides. Help can come in many forms. It doesn't always have to be money.

Hi creovation, If you are living only for yourself, what living is that, o my heart live for the people. Though we often talk bad of our people that they are not helpful, selfish and all. But that is not the whole story. People do help others. When you are in real problem one or two would surely come forward to help you. Suppose there is an accident taking place and inmates have received injury. They are all unknown people but people would gather over the place and the injured are immediately taken to the hospitals. This is an example of great help. But some of us are there who do not bother to help the needy people. In case one is in hurry for an important meeting or interview he/she can not be expected to spare time but others are there who are not in so much urgency. They are just onlookers and hardly come for help. There is happiness in helping others. Let them not show acknowledgement, you are happy doing your part, that is enough. And yes helping hands are better than praying lips.

It has always been my feeling that God does not help those who do not help themselves. So I am one who prays and helps. For ME, I find it to correlate well. I would never impose it on anyone, certainly my own beliefs.

pray without real action is futile. when our friends need help, should we help him with open arms and support it with prayer.
