And the King will answer and say to them 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it
to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to me.' Matthew 25:40
A little something to chew on, if you visit the prisoner you visit God. If you give a drink to someone who is thirsty you give it to God. When you visit the sick and the dying you are visiting God.
If you don't you are leaving God to rot, to thirst, to be in pain and die.
Take a moment to think about that, and all the times you looked straight ahead while the man/woman stood on the side of the road holding a cardboard sign. All the times you complained about welfare and food stamps. All the times you knew of someone in the hospital and didn't visit, didn't call. All the times you judged the criminal instead of taking the time to talk to them.
Now might be a good time to say a short, or long, prayer asking for forgiveness, I know I need to.
+ How have you treated the less fortunate?
