About Food

Hike in cost of goods is plaguing our world
Many are still going to bed hungry
In the midst of severe famine…
It’s common to see lavishness
 
While many can barely survive; some are overloaded
This contrast is staggering; but can it change?
The poor will always be with us, it need not be you
Can this line of division be crossed; if yes how?
 
I was once blind, now I see; I was lame but now I walk
Several miracles in bible requiring different approach
But a common note is faith and obedience
I say here that God delights in our prosperity
 
However it boils down to our simple choice
Jesus asked an obviously blind man; what can I do for you
Another he asked; do you believe I can make you well
He will ask us if we want to cross the line
 
The answer and truth as always been there; Give
To save the world God gave
The world operates on the principle of seed and harvest
Acknowledge God in all your ways; please Him first
 
The widow and son depicts this
They were gathering sticks to prepare their final meal
Elijah came demanding they feed him first
Most human will not oblige this
 
Somehow she denied her senses and obeyed in faith
She and son fed fat through the famine
When many were cast down; theirs was different...

Practice faith giving as a lifestyle
 
NOTE it’s not money; the woman didn’t give money
She gave only what was demanded
What is the Lord asking you to part with?
Clothe, watch, food, etc
 
He will never ask for what you don’t have
After all he only asked for Isaac after he gave them
God will grant us understanding…
