"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat,
I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink,
I was a stranger and you invited me in, 
I needed clothes and you clothed me,
I was sick and you looked after me,
​I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ "
Matthew 25

Three examples of G'milut Chasidim
                                                                                                                                                       [by rose ~ 2017]

From what I am learning and hopefully understanding, G’milut Chasidim is much more than what is technically considered to be charity or benevolence. It is more about the heart behind everything we do - the Musar of the Jewish walk as we follow our Jewish Messiah. It is about the heart attitude and whether we are reflecting the Light of Yeshua by displaying the Loving-kindness of HaShem - Chesed. As we endeavour to walk as Yeshua walked, following in His footsteps, we are called to go that extra mile when He asks, to do those things He is calling us to do without looking for a reward or anything else in return. It is about walking in sincere humility and with great transparency before HaShem as He called Abraham to do, as He calls each of us to follow in those same footsteps. It is about reaching out with loving-kindness to someone whom we may feel does not necessarily deserve it … but then I find myself asking, “do any of us truly deserve what He graciously gives to us?” I long that my heart would go deeper in receiving the truth of just how much He pours out to me even though I am undeserving; yet His Loving-kindness is displayed toward me through others. When my heart truly embraces this, it causes me to question, “do I then have any right to with-hold that very same Chesed to anybody else when it is required?”  When we reach out with the Mitzvot of G’milut Chasidim - who is to know but HaShem the reconciliation that is possible in our own hearts but also within the hearts of those who receive. As we receive undeserved Chesed in our “vertical” relationship with HaShem … like living waters being poured out, we give undeserved Chesed to others in “horizontal” relationship with each other… I look to see the shape of a 90 degree angle, a corner - it causes me to see Yeshua as the Cornerstone who longs to rebuild and restore, bringing reconciliation to the hearts of man as we reflect the glory of His temple … as we are His temple … hearts being restored one small stone at a time, stoney hearts becoming flesh in His hand.​
