LeCurtis: Being an inspiration may cause people to admire you, desire to know more about you, give you a level of respect, maybe even follow because you are working for the greater good. When people are loved unconditionally, it gives them a sense of hope and another chance at life despite imperfection. God has a heart for people; he wants the best for them. He wants to be a present help in time of need. People on the brink of suicide, been through rape and molestation, lost their home, can’t find a job, homeless, or lost a loved one. He understands. I also understand and lending a hand in these types of situations is a sign telling people about God. Some see God more in action than just words.
