Sharing It All

Psalm 41: 1-2
1 Blessed is he who considers the poor;
The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.
2  The Lord will preserve him and keep him alive,
And he will be blessed on the earth;

There are always people who have more "stuff" than we do. There are also people who have less "stuff." But is this Psalm talking about "stuff?" Or is it talking about poor in a different manner. Poor of spirit?
We can apply the more than/less than theory to that, also. We must share what the Lord has given us. Material-wise and spiritual-wise.

If you can give someone furniture or clothing or anything else you might have that's awesome. But we must also be willing to give what God has instilled in our hearts. The love He has for us. And we are called to share that love with others.

It's sometimes easier to give away our "stuff" rather than giving away His love, His words, His message. Giving away our stuff is less personal--it's doing a good deed and it doesn't appear to be pushy. When we share His message and love, sometimes it's not well received.

God loves us. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. Go and tell someone.
