William Secker, a Puritan minister, offers humorous metaphors to show that giving comes naturally to the Christian. Reservoirs of plenty should release their bounty without too much pumping. He says our benevolence should seek the poor, before they seek it.
Today, do we instinctively have the opposite view— if there are reservoirs of plenty, this is a reason to keep the poor away?
How can your benevolence seek out the poor?
