AN EVENT THAT CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER:

When we first started working in Haiti, we would have large open-air crusades. During one evening crusade in Carrefour, Haiti, I had around 10,000 people in attendance. I will never forget a lady right up front, a lady that held her baby high above her head and said with a loud voice, “If God is so good, why is my baby starving to death?” She changed our lives forever! I knew then that I would have to do more than just preach and tell everyone how good God is. This is all true, but love is something you do!

The Lord has given us so many scriptures on feeding the hungry and helping the poor. Open your Bibles this morning and read such powerful scriptures from the very words of Jesus himself.

“For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.” (Matthew 25:35-36)

Jesus said, “… as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” (Matthew 25:40)

God has made a promise to us… “He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack…” (Proverbs 28:27)
