Thanks so much for your help! I am going to print this out!

 And the King will tell them, 'I assure you, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!

Good post T-Block.

Also, when I was coming up, an advanced pianist told that if you're confused, just play what feels natural. This tip helped me because I have lost some mobility of one of my fingers. So, standard fingerings don't always work for me.
