Take time to help others

We all should help one another and do what we can to seek out those who need help and help them. Many people complain and say they are too busy to get involved and help those in need and others simply just do not care.

 Many have the resources to help others, but are selfish. When you see a person who is hungry, feed them. When you see a person who needs clothes, clothe them. When you see a person who needs help in finding a job, then help them. If you have the resources and know someone who is hiring, then help the person who is seeking work.

When you see a person who is struggling financially, and you have money to spare, then offer them some. If you know of agencies that can help the poor and the needy, then direct them with kindness.

 Remember that saying in the bible, in verse Matthew 25:33-36, Jesus said,
 "Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;  I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me."

In Matthew 25:38-39, the people responded and said,
"Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?  When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?  Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?" 

In Matthew 25:40, Jesus responded, "Assuredly, I say to you, in as much as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me."

When we all take time out of our busy schedules to help those in need, we shall receive greater blessings in return, so take time to help others and you shall see the difference.
