You’re walking to lunch, and you have just enough cash to purchase your own lunch. Let’s assume:
You’re living paycheck to paycheck…
You have no more cash…
Payday is still three days away,
But, you do have plenty of food at home.
As you approach the restaurant a homeless man asks you not for money, but if you will buy him something to eat…what do you do?
I will let God answer…
Matthew 5:42 (NKJV)
42 Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away.
1 John 3:17 (NKJV)
17 But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?
James 2:14-17 (NKJV)
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does itprofit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
Matthew 6:(NKJV)
31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Your sacrificed meal can be an answer to someones prayer, and is ALWAYS an example of God’s love.
Remember, if you have enough for today…you’re rich.
BE BLESSTIFIED!
