Charles Eliot Norton, an American
educator and humanitarian said, ” They serve God well who serve His
creatures”.The noblest and the best of God’s creations is ,indeed, man. If we
wish to worship God, the best was to do so would be to devote our lives to the
service of poor and the destitute. Everyone recognizes the value of this kind
of noble work and acknowledges its greatness. Politicians, statesmen and
military generals are often forgotten with the passing of time. But noble souls
like Gandhiji and Mother Teresa earn universal reverence and always live in the
hearts of people.
Even many rich people are often unwilling to help a beggar, an orphan, a widow
or a poor deserving student. Little do they realize that God dwells in the
hearts of their fellowmen. Only by serving their fellowmen will they be
rendering true service to God.
It is an unspoken truth that if life has been favorable to you, you have to
give back to society what you have got from it. And the best way is to be of
service to your fellowmen.
