Loving is living! This has always been one of my driving force in life. I love to see people happy, I love to put smiles on the faces of those I love. My heart is very compassionate, large enough to accommodate as many as possible.

Some days ago I caught myself thinking about helping the needy around me so that they can live a more beautiful life, I even made a prayer to God that day. Do you want to know what I prayed for? "I said God make me an answer to the prayers of people". I made that prayers silently in my heart as I walked by a woman struggling to make ends meet.

I know that there are many people who do not appreciate goodness, they can even shock you by repaying your kind gesture for bad but I won't allow it stop the good heart that God has given me. Today I visited a family, on my way to their home, I decided to stop by at a nearby supermarket to get some thing for them because I didn't want to go empty handed. I didn't have enough money with me, I have bills pilled up but it didn't stop me from getting something for them. When I got to their house, I made that prayer again. I said Lord I want to be a blessing to this family, make me an answer to their prayers.

She lives in a small apartment with her husband, children, sister and grandson. The woman takes responsibility for everyone. All the bills are on her, no one is helping her, not her husband or children. This is not because they don't want to help but because they don't have a job. I really want to help. I just kept wondering how she copes.

There was this very day, I was walking pass building, I saw a lady crying out loud outside, carrying a child and the child was crying too. I got curious and stopped to ask what the matter was, she couldn't speak to me, a neighbor responded to me by saying the lady needs money for food for her baby and hospital bill too because the baby is sick. Tears rolled down my cheek. I literally broke down. I gave them the little I could afford and went my way. I felt so bad that people are really suffering to the point of not affording something to feed a child with.

I was speaking with a friend on the phone, and we spoke about a lot of things including wealth, he asked me why I want to be wealthy and I told him I want to be the answer to the prayers of many. I want to solve their problems especially money problems. He laughed so hard and at the end he told me that it's very valid. He understood me, we made a prayer of agreement and it was so lovely.

Do you know what the scripture says about giving to the needy or poor? He says he that giveth to the poor lends to God and he will repay. Just imagine when God is saying am owing you and he wants to pay you back? That would really be massive.

You can't go wrong with giving or helping people even if they don't appreciate it. I feel fulfilled and happy when I do good to others. The excitement is out of this world.

So if you are like me out there, you have been good to people but you feel they dot appreciate it or turns out to pay you back with evil things. Don't worry, don't stop being good and helping. Continue. A few persons should not stop you from putting smiles in the faces of others.

I sincerely want the world to be a better place and it begins with you and I sharing Love.
