He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker, but he who

honours him has mercy on the needy. Proverbs 14:31

Many children in our world are hungry and sick because of the greed and cruelty of wicked men. Those who love and honour God should show kindness to the poor and give whenever they are able. Showing kindness to a needy person who follows Jesus, is like showing kindness to Jesus himself.
