When we think the poor should be earning a living rather than getting social services, are we truly having the mindset that Jesus would want?
Blessed is he that consdereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies. The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness [restore him in his sickness]. Psalm 41: 1-3
This is very significant to me. Not only does it please Jesus when we take care of the needs of the poor, but Jesus tells us through the Bible that we will be blessed and he will deliver us in times of trouble and illness. How amazing is that?!!!! Of course, Jesus wants us to do this with a willing heart, not just that we get some type of reward!
What Do Our Actions Say When Jesus Calls Us? Sometimes, the lack of action conveys more than we imagine, but there's still time to make changes! Yeah, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for Thee; the Desire of our soul is to Thy name, and to the remembrance of Thee. Isaiah 26:8
