Love begins from home. The home constitutes of a father, mother and the children and sometimes other sets of human beings that lives therein. Home are people within which could be neighbour, community, settlement etc. Home is the foundation of any family. Permit me to say that anyone without a home is like a house without a roof which exposes one to sorts of evils. Most of the atrocities in the society today are traceable to the kind of homes we have. Nothing just happened. There's no smoke without fire. What would it profit a man if they play a big cymbal of praise for you outside and inside things are just getting rotten? What you do outside is a sign of what happens in side. In this post, I will share reasons why charity(love) begins at home. I will share some experiences how a man failed to show to his immediate family.
We are living in a time where many people like pleasing others at the expense of their family or immediate associates or neighbour or community. There are many that like creating good impression to others outside their family folk or community. I'm not trying to dispute the fact that others too need to be helped but there must be a balance. Can you imagine a married man that hardly provides for his family goes out and buys plenty things and shops for other people outside? This is pseudo lifestyle as far as am concerned. Your transparency begins at home and not just the public places.
Politics has ravaged genuine display of love today and left many with a false lifestyle of vainglory. You could someone in elected position focusing on people that have no trace on how he was voted to such position. The community that volunteered and sacrificed themselves to get him to the top are relegated to the bottom. This topic is timely and it should be advocated in virtually all sectors today. Any charity work I can't practice or begin at home, I shouldn't display it elsewhere. I started my work in humanitarian services couple of years ago and it's been amazing. I experimented everything with my family first. The next one was to my immediate community. They were deeply touched and appreciated the kind gesture. Freebies were shared to children during that festive period. There's always something you can offer to benefit someone out there. Everything is not all about money. When you talk about helping others, what drops in our hearts is financial support especially in my beloved country but I have seen a lot that could be done to change people's narrative.
There was this man who happened to be the only outstanding person. He had the privilege to go to school and rose to the highest rank in his academic pursuits. He built sufficient capacity financially and other networks with other highly placed people in life endeavour. One of the thing he failed to do was to empower his family and community based on his capacity. He ended up pleasing and empowering others at the expense of his immediate neighbours. The Bible says if a man can't provide for his family, his worse than an infidel. Love must be displayed right from the home before it translates and radiates to others. If your neighbours can't speak good about you then something might be wrong somewhere.
You can share your idea, your love to someone out there. Recently, I was able to reach out to some individuals in a community with the available resources I had. They returned home with an overwhelming joy and many prayer positively for me to continue to succeed. It was a wonderful experience to pay back to the society in my own little way. I noticed some of the young people needed counsel, without any delay they were reached out. Giving someone attention to listen to what he's passing through is a very good act of love and being a succour.
Currently, I'm planning for another invasion into a community in the next few months for another remarkable timeout with the communards. Love can't easily be falsified because it speaks volumes that words can't counter it with ease.

excellent one.More grace
Amazing!
Whatever love we want to show people outside, it should be from our homes. Our community needs to feel our impact before the outside world. I can see you are doing a great job in your community already...
I pray for more strength to carry out this act of love and charity..
Thanks so much for the encouragement.
