PB Devotional

Acts of personal sacrifice and spiritual development are woven through scripture.  Scripture also encourages us to help those in need. The Old Testament is filled with statements to care for widows, orphans, aliens, the homeless, the hungry, the disabled, the sick, and the vulnerable. Jesus commands us to aid the “least of these.”

And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!’
MATTHEW 25:40

James declares that the “religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows.”

“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”
James 1:27

Do you have pure religion?
