What perception do you have of poor people? I think it’s fair to say that most people feel uncomfortable with this topic. This may arise out of fear of people living in poverty and/or perhaps a sense of guilt that you have done very little or nothing to reach out to them.
Unfortunately, this is a very timely topic in today’s society.
Many people who enjoyed a middle class life have financially fallen out of the middle class into various levels of poverty. This is especially true of single mothers who are divorced and no longer have the family income once enjoyed as a married couple.
Another category of poor people is senior citizens who are dependent upon government assistance in order to get by.
“It is in giving that we receive.”
Will you lift someone up?
If not today, when?
