Dear Pastor,
I would like you to pray for me. I am a hard-working woman in the United Kingdom. I am always helping my fellow brothers and sisters. However, I do not get any ratings because they use me and take my kindness for granted all the time. Now, they have taken all my money and I am suffering.
Please pray that I don't become a bitter and vexed woman because I don't want to change. I am nice but I need to try and keep my life together, make money and step up in life, instead of helping everyone else to step up.
J.W., London, England
Dear J.W.,
Continue to do good. Give as much as you can to others but don't rob yourself. And when you give, don't expect anything in return. Give because you love to give and you love people in general. Even if you don't get any 'ratings' from them, your reward will be great. The Bible says "God loves a cheerful giver". So, whether you give in church or to others, God will reward you. I will be praying for you.
Pastor
