So, I'm struggling with something and need some input.
Advertisements [?]
I have a personal struggle going on in my life right now and I'm trying to figure out how to deal with it. I think it basically boils down to how to deal with the resentment I feel.

I found out a person close to me is struggling financially. I know that the right thing to do would be to send this person some money with no strings attached. The struggle that I'm having is that this person (and family) are total republicans of the Focus on the Family type. Since I can't even tolerate the Focus on the Family group, I have a hard time assisting someone who is such a believer of their message. I can't help but feel resentment about this and while I think I know what the "right" thing to do is, I feel like I need to have a better feeling about it before I take that step.

So, how do my friends in this group deal with issues like this? How do you get past the feeling of resentment?
