Invite the Poor

On the contrary, when you host a banquet, invite those who are poor, maimed, lame, or blind.

Luke 14:13 CSB

Jesus here gives us a principle we find all the way through Scripture. The rich are meant to share with the poor. They are not to be forced to do it. But, they are to do it. Extra wealth is meant to be given, not taken. The righteous man who is able should give, and give freely, fully, and cheerfully. It is a blessed privilege.

Heavenly Father, You are amazing! You know everything, but more than that you understand everything because You are the Origin of all thought and wisdom. You have had it all from the beginning. Wisdom is Your possession, Your power and Your glory. Thank You for allowing me to be see some of your wisdom in Your Word! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
