I woke aware of the tangible reality of the substance exchanged through unfeigned charity. The knowledge has weight... It can be felt by the giver and the recipient. As when handing a piece of fruit to somebody.
When charity is received, we are able to recognize the value of it as one inspects ripe fruit. We also know what to do with it and so we ingest it by reflecting on it and taking notice of its power to strengthen, refresh, and stimulate an appetite for for more of it.
False knowledge shared by the carnal minded is also of substance. We recognize the look and feel of unripe fruit taken too early the branch or spoiled fruit left to rot on the ground. Neither satisfy or delight.
We therefore smile politely when receiving that and then slip it in the trash... We have no need for that.
But charity is carried on wings of angels and always welcomed in our hearts. Even as our Father seeks such to worship Him and invites overcomers into His own heart through Christ who is His Door.
