Come you who are blessed
Jesus said,
"They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?' He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'"Matthew 25:44-45.
Where do you stand when it comes to helping the poor?
If you’re an average person on the street do you give to the poor through charities or even giving a few coins to someone begging on the street.
If you’re a pastor or evangelist does your church give a portion of its income to helping the poor?
If you’re a Christian politician, are you active in helping to pass legislation that benefits the poor and the homeless?
When you stand before God will you hear,
"Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'” Matthew 25:34-36.
Please think about it.
