What are we doing?
Are we being good stewards of what God gives us like He asked us to?

I don't believe it God fault that some people are hungry for example in Africa. Most what goes on there is man made. It about politics, civil wars and how other countries have control over these countries owing money to the world bank etc. It really man fault how some places have people dying of hunger etc. Remember God give us free will. But sadly we still haven't learnt much on this earth have we?

Stonecold:
God created a world with more than enough good things in it to take care of every person in it in style and comfort.
Then, He turned that world over to men.
If people are dying of hunger, blame the people who are sitting on 90% of the world's resources, while the rest of the world tries to live on the other 10.
Stop blaming God.

Jesus said we will always have the poor with us. It is up to us to do everything we can to help the less fortunate. Give to a local food bank. Contribute to a reputible organization that helps the hungry in the world. Don't expect God to do everything. That's one of the reasons we are here.

God gives people sense to go out and help the hungry, dying, and sick. These people are dying and suffering b/c that's what they were meant to do. It might sound cruel for me to say this b/c kids don't deserve to die when they didn't do anything but by them dying it wakes people up and it shows them that they need to help. And that's what those people were meant to do.

Your question should be "What is man doing when....?" Why are we waiting for God to "fix" it? Doesn't God expect his children to take care of each other? Why does man let his fellow man starve? Why does man commit genocide against his fellow man?
God should have known better than to turn us loose with "free will."

If I am only for myself, what am I?
And if not now, when?”

God is taking serious notes on the thrid world government allowing it's people to die by huger, poverty and disease. Believe me: these governmental administrators WILL get their Judgement Day.
Oh....and God has a warm surprise for people who solicit millions $$$$ for global "hunger relief" and divert the funds to their own pockets.

What are we doing? That's the true question. Are we doing everything we can to help our fellow human beings? Or do we sit back and blame God?

HE fills the hearts of people to generously give to organizations that feed the hungry.
