THERE, LET ME HELP YOU WITH THAT.

The wind was blowing fiercely as a man was struggling to get

to Grand Central Station in New York. As he lugged his two

heavy suitcases, he would occasionally have to stop to regain

his strength. At one point he was ready to collapse, when

another man took the suitcases and said, “We’re going the

same way. You look as though you could use some help.”

When they reached the shelter of the station, the weary

traveler (who just happened to be the renowned educator

Booker T. Washington) asked the gentleman who had helped

him, “Please, sir, what is your name?”

The man replied, “The name, my friend, is Roosevelt. Teddy

Roosevelt.” (J. Allen Blair, Living Faithfully).

To think that a man as important as Teddy Roosevelt would

stop to assist another man he did not know, a man culturally

different, one who could probably do little in return, is

striking. Yet all of us find ourselves either as the person

struggling against the winds of life or the person with the

opportunity to help another soul who is struggling. It is

amazing whom one meets along life’s journey and amazing

what opportunities the happenstance meetings bring.

Instead of fearing and shunning others who may be different,

why not simply take advantage of the opportunity to correct

stereotypes by just “doing good.” Remember, it is our God

and not you that gives the increase. Thanks be to God for

giving us the opportunity to set aside politics and material

interests to learn from and with others.

“Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all,

especially to those who are of the household of faith.” —

Galatians 6:10
