Proverb for the Day

"He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker,
But he who honors Him has mercy on the needy."
--Proverbs 14:31

Just a reminder that we are to help the poor whether that be the poor in spirit or the physically poor. Remember, that how we treat others is how we are treating our God. Christ tells us in Matthew 25 that when we feed the poor, we are feeding Him. When we clothe the poor, we are clothing Him.

Even if you don't think you have much to give, remember that most likely (in our nation) you are still better off that other people and can still help. How many of us have more clothes in our closets than we actually need? How many of us couldn't spare a can of food? We all have something to give to others even if it is just our time helping them or lending a listening ear.

Honor God and have mercy on those in need!
