If I have two hamburgers and only need one, what kind of person am I if we share a meal and I let you go hungry? The more time we spend in the Gospels, the more we see Jesus sending the church to share what blessings they have with one another. We are transformed as a community. The Holy Spirit works in us and between us, and when we entrust ourselves to God, we have to trust when God calls us to be part of a community and look for opportunities to share from places where we have enough. When we care for one another, we are called to open our hearts to their needs -- not just their spiritual needs, but their physical needs as well. We may not have the resources to help everyone... but we're called to care about their needs and pray and work for a world where all those needs are met.
