I wanted to know what good works people do to help others but I think I didn't make it clear so I am asking in a different way. I am not speaking of money here, that is the easy way out for most of us and it is necessary but I wonder what you do that is above the money. How do you voluteer your time?
For instance, do you visit anyone in prison, help orphans, visit hospitals, help the poor by donating clothes, blankets, volunteer at meals on wheels, do you give to the Feed my Sheep type of homeless places that feed the homeless. Do you vist the Senior Citizen's home? Check up on an elderly neighbor?
They always have too many voluteers at Christmas and Thaksgiving to pass out food to the homeless but what about the rest of the year? Do you do the toys for tots, or help the salvaton army with their pots at Christmas. I think they are a wonderful organization. They do help the poor a lot.
What do you do to obey these scriptures?
Mat. 25:34 “Then I, the King, shall say to those at my right, 'Come, blessed of my Father, into the Kingdom prepared for you from the founding of the world. Mat. 25:35 For I was hungry and you fed me; I was thirsty and you gave me water; I was a stranger and you invited me into your homes; Mat. 25:36 naked and you clothed me; sick and in prison, and you visited me.' Mat. 25:37 “Then these righteous ones will reply, 'Sir, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you anything to drink? Mat. 25:38 Or a stranger, and help you? Or naked, and clothe you? Mat. 25:39 When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?' Mat. 25:40 “And I, the King, will tell them, 'When you did it to these my brothers you were doing it to me!' Mat. 25:41 Then I will turn to those on my left and say, 'Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his demons. Mat. 25:42 For I was hungry and you wouldn't feed me; thirsty, and you wouldn't give me anything to drink; Mat 25:43 a stranger, and you refused me hospitality; naked, and you wouldn't clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn't visit me.' Mat. 25:44 “Then they will reply, 'Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?' Mat 25:45 “And I will answer, 'When you refused to help the least of these my brothers, you were refusing help to me.' Mat. 25:46 “And they shall go away into eternal punishment; but the righteous into everlasting life.”
