A “Wow” Promise to those who are kind and generous to the poor! (Psalm 41.1-3)

Who is the most generous, considerate, caring person you know to those who are poor?  Got a face?  Got a name?  (Perhaps someone you know might even say it is you!  What a wonderful personal compliment!)

Here’s a wonderful promise from the Bible to people like that I read this morning during “coffee with the Lord”…

“Blessed is the one who considers the poor! In the day of trouble the Lord delivers him; the Lord protects him and keeps him alive; he is called blessed in the land; You, Lord, do not give him up to the will of his enemies!  The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.”  (Psalm 41:1–3 ESV)

Wow!  What a wonderful blessing!  What a wonderful word of assurance to people like that! … Oh Lord, I want to be a person like that!
