Do you believe in Spiritual Charity?
We do spend money and other material things for the needy, there is a spiritual spending too, that is to sacrifice our emotions, feelings etc for both deserving and our loved ones, do you agree with this? Then how do you go about spiritual charity? Is it that easy? Do you find difficulties? Your views please.
Yes of course. You can give your time. You can give your service. Sometimes this is easy and sometimes it's hard.
Thanks snowman, your elaborarion is too good. These things are quite invaluable.
The only feeling you should feel for the needy is empathy, so you can empathise with them & then help them positively with their problems..Never give them sympathy as that will only make them worse, & at the same time manifest unwanted emotions in you..Spiritual charity is any time you did anything good for your self & others, & even something like smiling at an old grannie is spiritual charity..Real spiritual charity should be given to even the undeserving people you know, just in case no one has ever shown them of such a concept as caring. :-)
Excellent ianmoon. I appreciate your words "smiling at an old granny is spiritual charity", so true.
Your welcome buddy & i will say being spiritual takes practice, until a person gets the gist of why their doing it..At first i wondered why i was bothering as not many people seem to be on-board, but when i got the gist i never looked back. :-)
Thats exactly Ian, when the heart finds comfort then there is absolutely no look back. I appreciate your words.

I am a spiritual person -- this does not define my beliefs or my religion. What it does mean is that I am true to myself and my beliefs. I was raised a Christian and still have the basic beliefs, that God and Jesus do exist. I pray to God and I talk with Jesus for guidance and healing -- I also...

Can Christians be what other would consider "sensitive" to the spiritual world?I have met many Christians that say they can see things that others don't! Many of them don't know what to call but being sensitive. I personally don't believe in physics, and medium, and these Christians have...

"I am not an atheist. I have a rational fear of God, and yet the common sense to ignore it." The Bible gives us an idea about how to be accountable for our actions, while also giving us a pair of scapegoats. On one end you have Hell (a place we go when we have sinned too much). On the...
