CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

God doesn’t need our good works, but our neighbors do.

From Matt Perman’s book — “What’s Best Next”.

“That’s the biblical ethic.  We are not to be scant and scarce in our good works, or even nominal and mediocre, but abundant and liberal in doing good.  We are not simply to do good for some people here and there; we are to do good for all people as often as we can and as much as we can.  While we cannot do all the good that is conceivable, the Scriptures do expect us to do a lot of good — that is, to abound in it.”

Proverbs 3:27 — “Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it.”

Galatians 6:10 — So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone.”

Exodus 2:23-25 — 23 oDuring those many days the king of Egypt died, and the people of Israel pgroanedbecause of their slavery and cried out for help. qTheir cry for rescue from slavery cameup to God. 24 And rGod heard their groaning, and God sremembered his covenant withtAbraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 God usaw the people of Israel—and Godvknew.

The people only played one part — they cried out for help.  God did the rest.  He heard.  He remembered.  He saw.  He knew.
