I agree with being lead by the spirits.
I have given money to strangers just because I felt moved to do it and have been told that it was just at the precise moment that they needed it. Once a Missionary came to my house, I have know this man for quite a number of years.
We had a nice visit and before he left I felt the spirit leading me to give him some money. I went and got the money from another room in the house and slipped it to him in a handshake as he was leaving. A couple of days later he called me to thank me and said that he was flat broke and the gas gauge was on E when he was at my house that day. He hadn't eaten all day and was lead of the spirit to go to my house, a place he had not been to in years. We fed him and the money that he got from me was more than enough to get him home some 300 miles away and have eough for his other expenses.

That is how friendship and the spirits work.
I wish I could do more for my friends and I would if I could.
