Chairty, the Willingness to Give to Help Others less fortunate; Why is it important to know this truth?

Because in the life of charity, all growth comes from God, but at the same time he does not will to save us without us (1 Cor 3:6, CCC 1847). In other words, although charity and our growth in this life of friendship with God are his gift to us, God requires of us our cooperation, that we desire and strive to grow in this life and ask him to perfect it within us. “If you knew the gift of God,” Jesus says to the Samaritan woman, “you would have asked him and he would have given you living water” (John 4:10).
