"The commercial below depicts the common
problem of feeling overwhelmed by the all of the need we see around us.
There is so much neediness, yet we don't have sufficient resources to
help in every effort or to donate to every worthy cause.
"The commercial rightly concludes that
we can address this feeling by doing. In other words, while we cannot do
everything, we can surely do something. What that 'something' is
requires discernment. What are my gifts? What are the needs I am best
positioned to help with? . . ."

Washington, DC) reflected on the discernment process involved when one is faced with needs/concerns that must/should be addressed.
