But there is a reason we are so blessed. It's not because we deserve it. It's so that WE can be a blessing to others. There is a marvelous story of a man who once stood before God, his heart breaking from the pain and injustice in the world. The fifth Object of Kiwanis states that we are to render altruistic service.
Altruism is the unselfish concern for or devotion to the welfare of others.
Doing something for others and expecting absolutely nothing in return. It is service purely motivated by love. Mother Teresa is the perfect example of a servant heart. And the reason we have to do more than our part is that there are not enough of us to meet all the needs. There are about 300,000 Kiwanians around the world and about 6 billion people in the world.
