The way to be more like God is not to be full of ourselves but to practice humility and compassion. Help between equals is a bond, help from one who considers himself above the other is demeaning.
First think, "that could be me" then reach out.

Thank you COL Mikel J. Burroughs . Excellent wordsmithing by CS Lewis. It would do a lot of us a world of good to understand that we are not the center of the universe. Have a wonderful day!
James 4:6
6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
“God opposes the proud
but shows favor to the humble.”

Good afternoon Sgt John H. and you're absolutely right - we as a people need to get away from "me" and starting practicing "we" Just my two cents John. You have a great day my friend.
