Good Day Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
As we are to encourage our Christian brothers and sisters through sharing, we previously gave the example from the New Testament where they would share their possessions, but that is not the only way we can share with those who have a need. In the early church deacons were called to minister to the widows[1] while special offerings were taken at various churches for poor and needy saints.[2] Granted, there are numerous programs today for both groups; however, there are many of them that drop through the crack and are faced daily with basic needs. Today, we can share the blessings we have received through many Christian ministries that are available, many in our own local congregations. Food panties, clothes closets, and other ministries are available for our sharing, and they probably could use our work assistance in addition to any donations we may share. As the Lord has blessed us, we as Christians should share with brothers and sisters in Christ who are less fortunate and in need.
Do not just consider donating to the various Christian social ministries, if you are able to do so, spend some time volunteering with one of them!
“And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.” (Acts 2:45)
May God Richly Bless You Today
