"I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me...And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!"
Matthew 25:36,40

Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural.
It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated
by the actions of human beings.

In these very difficult and trying times, it is even more important that we are willing to help one another:
And he will answer, ‘I tell you the truth, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me"

Matthew 25:45 (NLT2)
 
That story of David and Shimei has been very helpful in my dealing with being falsely accused by many people, including my [three] families, including even the government. If the Lord has ordered these things to happen because He has an Almighty Plan . . . then I should consider myself to be Blessed! After all, isn't it said that the Children of God will be those who suffer?

King David had the right and Holy perspective of his sufferings. He knew that there is an Eternal Plan, that his days were numbered, and he knew that the Spirit of God was teaching him even while at his mother's breast.

Psalm 22:9-10 NIV - "Yet you brought me out of the womb; you made me trust in you, even at my mother's breast. From birth I was cast on you; from my mother's womb you have been my God."

Our Bible is so unbelievable. I cannot believe how much I Love our Bible.
I only wish that I had the time to study and meditate on scripture as you do.
 
It would be great if all of us could commit that amount of time each day for studying God's Word. However...we are also called to "be our brother's keeper", which means that when we commit to that on a regular basis, then we have lived out the Great Commission.
