The poorest of the poor need many things . . . food, clothing, protection. Most of all they need the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
May we live lives worthy of the Gospel to help people in dire situations . . . in our neighborhoods and all over the world.
Come Lord Jesus and end all this! Come even now!
I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve. (Romans 16:17-18)
