James Chapter 2 part 4
James 2:6-7
...But you have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by which you are called?
Motives - Focus - Purpose
all these worlds add up to our what our life is all about - many times we error in the judgments we make - often we think its the rich that can do good things for us - and we don't look to those who are poor to help us at all - I go back to my sponsored Child Ruben - he is poor and yet is rich in wisdom and love - and yet here we are with too much stuff - yes we all have too much - and we have others with not enough -there is something wrong with this picture - and yet we will spend a hard earned money on entertainment and wanting to met the famous - the stars that society has made - the world lifts up those who have riches and fame but ignores the needed -these things should not be so - our hearts need to be more focused on serving Christ not on worldly things - again we must live in the world but we don't and should not be of the world- there is a line and its sometimes hard to see - God is telling us that its not the rich we need to focus on but the poor - as much as we think they need us -in reality we need them -we can learn much from them - they know what its like to be hungry and how to do without - many of us have never been hungry in such a way before - the United States is blessed and its inhabitants are some of the richest in the world- and I am talking about you - and me - we all are in the upper 9% of the worlds wealth - compared to the world - we have too much and the rest of the world is in serious need -now there are those right in our back yards that don't have anything - they need our help - we are not to be living for ourselves but for Jesus who bought us at a great price!
To be greatest of all -you must be a servant to all!
footnote: Whatever you do -do it for God's glory! Not your own!
because of CHRIST......we praise!
