Once I dived into making this list of verses, it was hard to stop at 20! I was struck anew today by the strong action verbs in these verses.
How close it must be to God’s heart if the Creator of the Universe encourages and instructs us so many times to care for and even donate to the poor, the orphan, the widow and the afflicted. I didn’t count, but I read that there are over 2,000 Bible verses about helping the poor.
