1. I was gone for a week, off to Cleveland, with my daughter and grandson,

watching Penn State set another team scoring record at the NCAA wrestling championships.

At the hotel this morning we stopped for some tea and coffee and bagels before the ride home.

When we're getting up ready to leave a homeless man sat down at a table across from us. I told my grandson, wait a minute, I walked over to the homeless man and said hello, I gave him 10 dollars and said, someone told me it's your birthday, he laughed and thanked me.

We were just outside the lobby door waiting for our car when I asked my grandson if he knew why I did that? He asked why. I told him because that man may be Jesus. He laughed but I stopped him and said, I am serious. I didn't pay attention, but my grandson said, that man went into the shop to buy food. I say, yup, Jesus has to eat too.

Just how it happened this morning.

2. um.....

wut?

3. Well, one thing I can think of is Jesus said, "Whatever you do to the least of these you do to me" Also Christians

believe that Jesus will return again to the earth in physical form. So if that is true the man could very well be Jesus

4. yeah OK

sounds like GROOMING to me

[Maraya1969]

5. Yea maybe. But if it is grooming it is a good grooming, in my opinion because he is teaching his kid to give.

I don't see the harm in that, except maybe if you think he is forcing his kid to believe in Jesus and I just didn't get that much from what he said. If you look at the Walk for Peace videos on Instagram and see the few that have born again Christians trying to convince the Buddhists that they are going to Hell because they don't believe in Jesus...........that is grooming and that is nuts, to me.

6. I disagree

I occasionally give money to homeless folk because I think they may be HUNGRY, not because I think they may be Jesus.....imagine that.

[Maraya1969]

7. OK. I never think about someone being Jesus either when I give. I think it is good to give just to give.

[Skittles]

8. yes

we should give because it's the right thing to do, not because we expect some kind of reward in the end.

10. The brain manufactures four different feel good chemicals when we help others.

That's reward enough for me.

9. Look down on others, in order to feel how high you are.

Yeah...
