Why is it
that when something really cool happens like a bunch of strangers help a person in need, that someone always says that god did it?
God didn't tell anyone to do anything.
People asked people and people came together and did the deed because people wanted to.
That big invisible thing up in the clouds gets far too much credit for things that real live human beings right here on earth are doing.
Comments
People have faith that God had a hand in things like that, because of what is taught in church - to be Christian and giving. ?? I don't know... but it is our hearts is where we decide to give something or do something to help another. People can ignore that prompting, as easily as they can follow it. At least that is how I see it.
Have a good day, Kat! *hugs*

It reminds me of the episode of the simpsons when Homer needs $50,000 and he calls Ned Flanders and Ned says that yes, he has the money but he can't give it to him even though it would save his life but that he will pray that God saves Homer.
It is inaction in prayer but action in the heart.
