When Helping Hand Is Nuisance

things for US; it's the one that
assists us to do things for our
selves.
Therefore, unlike the Interior
ing Hand, it IL not continually
outthrust. First 1t makes sure
that it. can be of actual service,
and then, indeed, it offers itself
freely.
The hand that is always out is
much more likely to be in the
way than it is to help, isn't IT.,
Friend?
Besides, by always reaching
for the activities that belong to
another, isn't it neglecting its
own responsibilities?
And no one can do ahother's
work who does not take care Of
his own!
So let US continue to honor the
Helping Hand, dear Friend Let
us offer it whenever it is needed.
But may we Ne very careful now
to allow it to become the Inter
fering Hand!
