Conscious vs. Unconscious

I came across an interesting thought this morning. It seemed like there was a time in life when hospitality was a key part of life. There was a time when the unconscious decision was to help people. It wasn't something that was even questioned it was just done. The conscious decision that had to be made was NOT helping people.

Now the tables have turned. The thing everyone does now is make the unconscious decision to walk by someone that is in need. They actually ignore them without realizing they do. It's sad to see the swing that has taken place not just within the culture of the United States, but in the Christian circles as well. It seems that one of the most difficult parts of the Christian life is reaching out to others.
