The Poor
'Inasmuch as you do it to the least of these,you do it to Me.
If we lump the poor as all those for whom things are going badly wrong in their lives (maybe not a good description!),how do we deal with them. Do we judge and discriminate between the deserving and undeserving poor or are we unjudgemental?
Personally, I don'y know what the Lord requires of me. Or do I and I just don't much like it.
Please throw light on how you approach this matter.
In Christ

Pray for the Poor.
Fast for the poor, and to taste their hunger.
Give from the bounty that was given to you to help alleviate their pain.
