Julian of Norwich on charity

He that made all things for love, by the same love keepeth them, and shall keep them without end.

Martin Luther King Jr.1929–1968Conquering Self-centeredness (1957)

Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for divine love?
