"If our poor die of hunger, it is not because God does not care for them. Rather, it is because we are not generous enough."

Mother Teresa said "If our poor die of hunger, it is not because God does not care for them. Rather, it is because we are not generous enough."

Imagine this situation:
After dinner, we may have excess food and we may throw it in the garbage because:
1) We do not know that there may be a hungry person in our neighborhood.
2) We do not know or we may have forgotten that there is a person that we know who is lonely (lives alone, or family is out of town) and that lonely person can consume some excess food.
3) In fact we may be busy looking forward to our favorite TV show whereby the  thought of giving away the excess food does not cross our mind.
