In everything, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus Himself: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ — Acts 20:35 BSB

All Christians are part of one family. When one suffers, the others should share in their pain. While some of us are healthy, others are sick. While some have plenty, others go hungry or are cold. While some are joyful, others are grieving. Some are surrounded by friends and family, while others are lonely and homeless. Those who are blessed should not forget those in need. Keep your heart open and watch for ways to help.

Jesus said that on the day of judgment, He will welcome those who have fed the hungry, given drink to the thirsty, clothed the naked, and visited the sick. To them, He will say, “Inasmuch as you have done it to the least of these My brethren, you have done it unto Me.”
