As we watch thousands of poor people in society go about in their daily lives, we may take for granted and become indifferent to their condition.
Most people tend to honour the wealthy and look down on the poor. In Proverbs 14 : 31 we are reminded that the poor are created by God. Every one of us is a product of His craftsmanship. When we oppress the poor, we are actually reproaching God who made them.
Proverbs 14 : 31
He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker, but he who honors Him has mercy on the needy
