BREADCRUMBS – A Sermon
The gift the Canaanite Woman brings is reminding us we have nothing to give that we have not received so we have no cause to deny help to anyone.

It is not a good plan to be in haste to perform any action that it may be the sooner over.
Work done out of harmony with God comes to nothing, but work done in a rightful spirit, drinking in of the Love of God, is eternal work
…a care that brings burdens, that takes away light, that deprives us of happiness, has passed beyond the wholesome line.
I HATE to see a thing done by halves; if it be right, do it boldly; if it be wrong, leave it undone.
DON’T speak of what you are going to do. Do it.
LET us be content in work
To do the thing we can, and not presume
To fret because it’s little.
The poor are always with us. The wayfarers come to us continually, and they do not come by chance. God sends them.
Not till you make men self-reliant, intelligent, and fond of struggle, fonder of struggle than of mere help – not till then have you relieved poverty.
THIS is true philanthropy, that buries not its gold in ostentatious charity, but builds its hospital in the human heart.
