June 10 concluding episode of this series focuses on helping people. Children are teasing this crazy woman and Kevin came to the rescue to fool the children to call a policeman so that they leave the poor crazy woman so that the children would run away. Kevin gave the dirty woman bread and she ate it hurriedly, her dirty old cloth and dirty hair signifies her hunger and a bad smell. Kevin took the woman home just like a Good Samaritan. Upon seeing the woman Anna and Sophia was scared and shocked. They couldn’t resist her smell and looks. Kevin explained that the woman is a friend and he will take good care of the woman so that children would not tease her on the street. Kevin reminded them that a person should give help in times of need just like written in the bible as a Good Samaritan.
Anna and Sophia recognized the woman that she is the one they’ve been looking for. She is Gina, Anna’s former employee. They took good care of Gina and clean her body and gave her new clothes so that she would look nice. They even think of ways so that she could be back on her own mind again, they have tried to convince her to try to think and respond so that she can be brought home if she’s been cured.
Anna and Sophia think about ways of how she’ll be back in her mind actually when Gina responded once they have proven that it was Anna’s fault when she fired her, Anna didn’t know that Gina was pregnant when she fired her, Gina lost her job, she lost her baby and her husband left her. Anna thought about firing Gina on her job since she didn’t perform well. Anna and Sophia took Gina on her way home to look for her husband Paul but he resisted accepting her since she lost her baby. Anna felt the need to help Gina all the way, morally and physically. Gina has no place to stay, although Sophia’s family is poor they never doubted to accept other people like Gina in their own home to bring them shelter and food. God will be the one to bless such family with this kind of thinking.
All of us will soon face the same situation about being there in times of needs, look around you and you can see people suffering from different kind of trouble and you can find that you can always be of help to them. No matter how big or small you can do, just learn to be helpful in your own ways. As long as there is a genuine concern and we are motivated to help people, this can bring a greater joy in our life more than the physical reward that we can get. There will be times that we will be the one who will be in need of help, we can easily recognize a true friend and neighbor if they are willing to help us the same way we help others.
This work is written in the bible (Luke chapter10: 25 to 37) came into a parable. When Jesus is into the middle of many people and children told the story of who really is a neighbor. He told that there was a man going down the hill from Jerusalem on his way to Jericho but robbers came to hunt him to take his belongings and beat him leaving him almost half dead. He was all alone and helpless until such time there was a priest who came to that road and saw him, the man asked the priest to help him but the priest took passed the other road to prevent him. Another man passed the same road but he does the same preventing the man. But when a man from Samaritan passed the same road and he saw the man half dead he had compassion. He came to him and bound up his wound pouring an oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him.
The next day he gave money to the innkeeper saying, took good care of the man and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back says the Good Samaritan. It was the story told by Jesus then he asked the people, who among the three proved to be the neighbor to the man who fall among robbers? They answered that it is the man who showed him mercy. Jesus told us that we should do the same to people who need help.
