Lord, you are right to remind us that doing good is good because ingratitude has gone too far outside.
We have been so disappointed by the behaviour of some people,
we have sometimes received so much scorn that we have often withdrawn and distrusted some who have approached us innocently.
We have allowed ourselves to be distorted by the attitude of men.
God understands that it hurts to be minimised so much after generosity, but he invites us not to expect rewards for doing good.
It’s also about growing in maturity.
We’ve been taken advantage of so much that we’re on our guard, we don’t want to be taken advantage of again,
We keep everyone away from us to protect ourselves from traps.
By trying to be cautious, we have opened the door to another problem: selfishness and individualism.
We want to concentrate on ourselves, we just want to support those who know how to do us good.
We have decided to deprive innocent people of the grace God has given us because we have bad experiences.
So, if we are children of God
if we call ourselves imitators of Christ, we must not tire of doing good.

Now Lydda was near Joppa, and when the disciples heard that Peter was there, they sent two men to him, asking him to come to them without delay.
Peter got up and went with the men. When he arrived, they took him into the upper room. All the widows came to him, weeping, and showed him the coats and garments that Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Peter led everyone out, knelt down and prayed, then turning to the body, he said, “Tabitha, get up! She opened her eyes and saw Peter, and sat down.
Dorca received her harvest at the right time according to her need.
Let’s not let bitterness rob us of our true nature.
Let us continue to lift a finger to help others,
have faith in God and he will visit us in his own time.
Good day to you all
Good day to you all
