The Proper Way to Help Someone - Rabbi YY Jacobson

You want to help somebody else? Don't tell them. If you need help, call me. What are you supposed to tell them? Your wife is sick, your husband is sick, you need help with everything 24/7. Yeah, I'll call you. It's not how you offer help. Call her and say, "I'm shopping now. What can I get you? I'm in the cleaners. Can I pick anything up for you? I'm coming to your home tonight to babysit for 2 hours so you can get a break." That's how you offer help.
