We never discriminate among the poor. We never select who to help or who not to help based on religion, gender, language, nationality or sexual orientation.
Love is the fire and decision that seeks the holistic well-being and goodwill of the other person being careful not to injure, offend or hurt them rather to please and delight them.
Mercy is the love that seeks to relieve one of one's miseries and turn people's depressing, agonizing and seemingly hopeless situations around and for the best. It also seeks to love and forgive even when the recipient does not deserve it.
A Missionary is one who has been sent to complete a task of love. The one who accepts and carries out this task of love wholeheartedly and earnestly without seeking pay, honour or worldly accolades is a TRUE MISSIONARY.
"Distant water will not put out the fire close at hand"
Chinese proverb
That is why we, missionaries, have to go for the Lord wherever He leads, to bridge the gap and bring God's Love and Mercy to the suffering victims in far away and inaccessible locations.
