When God sent his Son into the world it was the greatest act of charity known to mankind. He saw our need and did not wait for us to hold out our hand, but instead He reached out to us. Most of the charity we do as Christians is a response to those who come to us and ask. During this time of year we especially enjoy helping others. It is always a blessing to help those less fortunate and certainly commanded in Scripture. But true Christmas charity is Christ-like. Christ-like charity is seen in the parable of the “good Samaritan” (Luke 10:30-37). The Samaritan did not wait to be asked, but proactively reached out. I encourage all of us, not just during the Christmas season, but throughout the year, to look for those that have been overlooked by so many. Proactively reach out and show true Christian charity.
