I heard a story about a minister who called at the home of a poor woman. He intended to give her financial help, because he knew she was very poor. With his money in his hand, he knocked at the door, but she didn’t answer. He decided she wasn’t home and went his way. A little while later, he met her at the church and told her he’d remembered her need. “I called at your house and knocked several times,” he said. “I supposed you weren’t at home, because no one came to the door.”
