The care of the Poor
The Lord will strengthen him on his bed of illness.
~ Psalm 41:3
"Remember that this is a promise to the man who considers the poor. Are you one on these?
See how in the hour of sickness the God of the poor will bless the man who cares for the poor! The everlasting arms shall stay up his soul, as friendly hands and downy pillows stay up the body of the sick. How tender and sympathizing is this image; how near it brings our God to our infirmities and sicknesses!
Grace is the best of restoratives; divine love is the safest stimulant for a languishing patient, it makes the soul strong as a giant, even when the bones are breaking through the skin. There is no physician like the Lord, no tonic like His promise, no wine like His love.
If the reader has failed in his duty to the poor, let him see what he is losing, and at once become their friend and helper." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
