Christian Liberality Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. Ps. 41:1 To think about the poor and let them lie on our hearts is a Christian mans duty; for Jesus put them with us and near us when He said, The poor ye have always with you. Many give their money to the poor in a hurry, without thought; and many more give nothing at all. This precious promise belongs to those who consider the poor, look into their case, devise plans for their benefit, and considerately carry them out. We can do more by care than by cash, and most with the two together. To those who consider the poor, the Lord promises His own consideration in times of distress. He will bring us out of trouble if we help others when they are in trouble. We shall receive very singular providential help if the Lord sees that we try to provide for others. We shall have a time of trouble, however generous we may be; but if we are charitable, we may put in a claim for peculiar deliverance, and the Lord will not deny His own word and bond. Miserly curmudgeons may help themselves, but considerate and generous believers the Lord will help. As you have done unto others, so will the Lord do unto you. Empty your pockets. Faiths Checkbook. Charles Spurgeon A special thanks to everyone that came out yesterday to help at the food pantry at Manor. We served about 70 familes that came out in the snow in need of food-stuffs. A special Blessing on all of you. Pastor Elmer.
