Real Help for the Poor-------------------------------------------------------
WHEN Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was on earth, he showed genuine interest in helping the poor. Regarding Jesus’ ministry, an eyewitness observed: “The blind are seeing again, and the lame are walking about, the lepers are being cleansed and the deaf are hearing, and the dead are being raised up, and the poor are having the good news declared to them.” (Matthew 11:5) However, what about the many millions of poor people today? Is there any good news available for them? Yes, there is a message of hope!
Although poor people are often ignored and forgotten by the world in general, God’s Word, the Bible, promises: “Not always will the poor one be forgotten, nor will the hope of the meek ones ever perish.” (Psalm 9:18)
