a morsel of kindness

"suppose someone has enough to live and sees a brother or sister in need, but does not help. then GOD's love is not living in that person." 1 john 3:17

leo tolstoy, the great russion writer, tells of the time he was walking down teh street and passed a beggar. Tolstoy reached into his pocket to give the beggar some money, but his pocket was empty. Tolstoy turned to the man and said, "I'm sorry my brother, but I have nothing to give."
the beggar brightened and said, "you have given me more than i asked for - you have called me brother."

to the loved, a word of affection is a morsel, bu to the love-starved, a word of affection can be a feast.(from 'He still moves stones')
