Love With Actions and In Truth

If you are reading this post, you are on a computer. Take a few minutes out of your day and use the mouse for good!

Go here,

http://thehungersite.com

and find the yellow button to “click” to help feed the hungry in the world, and find information about the genocide in Darfur, companies you can purchase items that send portions of their profits to charities, and links to similar sites such as World Vision.

There are five other tabs that you may click on to find similar charities that have a “click a day” button, including:

Breast Cancer Site
Child Health Site
Literacy Site
Rainforest Site
Animal Rescue Site.

In this, the Holy Week commemorating the death and resurrection of Jesus, it is of the utmost importance to all Christians to remember what He was born on earth to teach His believers:

• "But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind." Luke 14:13

• "When Jesus heard this, he said to him, ‘You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.'" Luke 18:22

• "Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in. If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, 'Here's a good seat for you,' but say to the poor man, 'You stand there' or 'Sit on the floor by my feet,' have you not discriminated among yourselves and becomes judges with evil thoughts? Listen, my dear brothers: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom He promised those who love Him? But you have insulted the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court?" James 2:2-6

• "If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth."
1 John 3:17-18
