Is this wrong of me?

Proverbs 14:31
‘Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.’

So, I give cash to the poor when I can. But. I always try to figure out if they're using first. I kind of feel like it's wrong of me.

I think the gift of sharing shouldn’t stop due to the incorrect actions of others. I passed a girl on my way to work a while ago who asked for money so that she could get home, just money for the train fare. She did look like she was having a hard time, I suspected she may not be truthful but who am I to judge? The following week I was in the same area and she was there again asking the same question, money to get a train home. After asking she then recognised me from the previous week and then she quickly disappeared into the crowd.
We still need to give a helping hand, next time I’ll buy her the ticket.

@Steffanie Thanks for the share.

Buying a ticket for next time would be smart.
