Each time we act to improve the life of another person… we send forth a ripple of hope in what appears to be a hopeless society. Joyce Meyer
I felt this when God told me to feed the people now. He needed little me to do that for him and I gladly said I will be your hands and feet Lord!
These are the words that jump out and grab me and they still do! They bring me to tears when I read them! Feel the pain in Gods heart as these words come out of your own mouth!
Matthew 25:35-45
35For I was hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you brought Me together with yourselves and welcomed and entertained and lodged Me,
36I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you visited Me with help and ministering care, I was in prison and you came to see Me.
37Then the just and upright will answer Him, Lord, when did we see You hungry and gave You food, or thirsty and gave You something to drink?
38And when did we see You a stranger and welcomed and entertained You, or naked and clothed You?
39And when did we see You sick or in prison and came to visit You?
40And the King will reply to them, Truly I tell you, in so far as you did it for one of the least of these My brethren, you did it for Me.
41Then He will say to those at His left hand, Begone from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels!
42For I was hungry and you gave Me no food, I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing to drink,
43I was a stranger and you did not welcome Me and entertain Me, I was naked and you did not clothe Me, I was sick and in prison and you did not visit Me with help and ministering care.
44Then they also will answer, Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?
45And He will reply to them, Solemnly I declare to you, in so far as you failed to do it for the least of these, you failed to do it for Me.
Why go overseas when your next door neighbor is going to hell!
