「He who has pity on the poor lends to the Lord,

　And He will pay back what he has given.」　Amen.

The Bible says, "but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven," (Matthew 6:20) I am easily distracted by the riches of this world. But the Living Bible translates it this way. "Giving money to the poor is the same as lending it to God. When you have such an opportunity," you should keep it in mind.

　I hope that today, too, we will be able to do things that will be rewarded by the Lord....　

God bless you.   See you tomorrow.
