Positive Quote for the Week: Never Neglect Those in Need

Over and over again the Lord makes it known to us that He expects us to help the poor, the widow, the fatherless, and the ones that suffer lack, Psalm 68:5. Almost every verse of Scripture regarding poverty has a blessing or curse attached to it. He gave us His Word so that we would have a clear understanding of His rules and regulations on how we are to live our lives as believers of Jesus Christ.

There are so many ways that every single one of us has the ability to help our brothers and sisters in times of need. It doesn’t have to be financial assistance but you can help with providing a meal, clothes that you no longer use, a ride if you can, prayer, and even a word of encouragement. The main thing that you want to make sure is that you are helping out of the goodness of your heart.

The fact of the matter is that we have all experienced difficult times at one point in our lives but by the grace of God you made it through. There was someone along the way that assisted you through those challenging moments. The Lord expects us to treat others as ourselves, Mark 12:31. If you have something that you can afford to give to another person in need, do it.

If you are on the flip end of the spectrum and you are the one that is living in poverty, you can get yourself out of that hole. If you follow God’s spiritual rules and principles surrounding poverty, He promises you blessing after blessing. If you don’t have money, do whatever you can to help those that are less fortunate than you.
