You had a great time at the; Thanksgiving meal, tea party or church dinner. Hilarious games and great food, but when it's time to go home there is a bad taste in your mouth. Some of the fun atmosphere evaporates, when the couple or person that has a good career or finances, walks with the last table full of leftovers, passing on the way out, an empty handed couple that doesn't have money for their next meal. Then there's the time all eyes pop open wide, when the well off couple, who are banking their money, eats most of the table while complaining, leaving no leftovers. Selfies!! SHARE the food, SHARE the leftovers.
It's is amazing to see the opposite, when a frail older lady is
giving food, clothing and all of her time, (after all, she has done that her entire life). Yet some of us that have the opportunity to help in a little way financially, or maybe volunteer, or even clothes donations, usually offer what's leftover and unusable.
Many a pew filler, participates, worships, or volunteers when or if, they can fit it in. Their quiet time with God is thirty seconds before doze off. They had all day/week, but He gets what's left over.
