The poor and the needy will always be there and we cannot totally eradicate them and so we have to develop ways and tactics of handling them so that the don't become a bother to the other people but instead co exist in society and mingle with the rest of the people.Looking down upon them will only make them feel and grow to be bitter towards every other person who is not as poor as they are.I will begin by asking a simple question. Have you ever visited any institution that caters for the homeless children or the poor people in society?We need to reevaluate ourselves and ask ourselves what we have done to save the poor from perishing.It is very easy to reach the needy and we only need to have that plan in mind because they need us.You know at one point in time each one of us feels like he or she needs the help of another person and it is not wrong actually to ask for help nut afterwards we tend to forget and start criticizing those around us who are in constant need of help. The only difference between us and them is that our paths open up either way but as for them ,the future seems blocked and hopeless.Giving the poor a bright future starts by us being kind and loving towards them By offering them the base for building their lives. Give them food when they are hungry and quit complaining when you have to do it over and over again. Don't throw away clothes that you don't like while someone else does not have a single decent clothing on him or her. Some of us tend to keep away clothes that w have outgrown or don't like without thinking of the street families who can't afford anything.The other big thing to do is educate them, they have children who need to go to school. If you can afford to pay just half the school fees for them and ask your friend to give you a helping hand then you will have ministered in actions. They need to have some hope and by taking their children to school, you provide some light for them. It is very rare to find children from poor families being stupid in school in fact these children top almost everywhere they go and so what they need is the ticket then their brains will work the rest for them.Offering them advice and motivation will g a long way in helping them nurture a sense of belonging and will make them try to make their lives better by the day. You have gone through schooling and you have a wide display of information at your disposal, why not use it to better the life of someone who is challenged in terms of not having the right person to guide him or her in life. Be the knowledge fro them and don't just brag about what you know to people of your class only.You can do all these by praying for the strength from God to make you understand their language and not offend them when they give you the chance to be wit them. Pray for the right words and the right mind to approach them and you will realize how much joy there is in giving tan in receiving. You will be blessed for the little that you give and you will brighten the lives of other families.
