One day, I god the call from Japanese elder who said that one African friend in China. He has problem with economy has some financial problem because of COVID-19. Even though he didn’t have flight fee. He doesn't even have enough money to buy some airline tickets. That’s why elders started fund raising for him. In this case only foreigners can help him because of security problem. Our congregation was merged other congregation in another city that’s why I didn’t know him. If I know him, it would more easy easier to donate. In fact, I used to help others in my congregation. If I know that friends has no money doesn't have enough money, I buy something to eat for them or gave them some money. I was not sure that how much money I should donate. Actually I have money but I'd was not be willing to donate at first time. But I tried to persuaded me myself that if I donate donation is very worth it. I can help others practically and I know it pleases to God. Helping others is helping me. myself When we help others, we can feel happy. I wanted to express my small minded. They wanted to know how much I can donate because they worried that I'd be donateding too much money is too much. He encouraged me that was not a small amount of money and thanks to me.he's grateful for what I did. His word comforted me. Japanese elder sent a message that African friend wrote the appreciation to every friends who donated. I was touched by a his message. I regretted to hesitate whether to donate or not. Thanks to god Thank God that I had the opportunity to help others and cooperated others. I felt ashamed of myself. I leaned practical helping is important and I need to be more generous from this case. I admire people who donate a lot.
