Have you ever asked yourself why God allows his children to be poor? Because, definitely we all know that he can do all things and He can provide for all our needs according to his reaches in glory. Yes, he could make them all rich if he wish; He could lay bags of diamond at their doors; He could send them a large annual income; maximum wage at that, least of them all is providing them with abundant food as he did for his people of Israel. But that is really not happening, then you keep asking, why is it so, because I know that the word of God says that, “The cattle upon a thousand hills are His” and in another passage He says that “if He can provide for the birds of the air, what of us his lovely people”.
Our God can provide for us even beyond our expectation. Because, the poor are also the sheep of his flock, we are advised to remember the poor in our society. The poor are loved by Christ, we should also love them too. Therefore, let us not look at helping the poor as a duty but rather as a privilege to relieve the poor of the Lord’s flock. As the saying goes, that him who helps the poor builds for himself house in heaven let us also not forget His words that says that we should be our brother’s keeper.
Make therefore decision today to always help the poor in your society. For Galatians 2:10 says that we should always remember the poor.
