Trimmed lamps

Naturally, you may be wondering why the Help Me Give Back logo is an oil lamp. That's a fair question. What then is the significance of the oil lamp?

In the parable of the ten virgins, five are caught unprepared without oil at the coming of the Bridegroom. This is of such significance that those with oil could not share with them whose lamps had gone out. While the lacking virgins left to go replenish their lamps, the wedding was started and the door was shut without them. As sad and upsetting as this was, there was no accommodation made. These virgins were unable to enter the wedding feast later, which signifies the import of being ready with oil in our lamps now. The oil lamp icon reminds us of this principle. What is that component in our lives today and why is it so important? I propose it could be unselfish service in others' behalf. That is why the Help Me Give Back icon is an oil lamp.

Blessings of service don't just help others all about us. It saves our lives, as well.
