Verse of the Day: 'Remember the Poor'

For [God] who worked through Peter making him an apostle to the circumcised also worked through me in sending me to the Gentiles, and when James and Cephas and John, who were acknowledged pillars, recognized the grace that had been given to me, they gave to Barnabas and me the right hand of fellowship, agreeing that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. They asked only one thing, that we remember the poor, which was actually what I was eager to do.

- Galatians 2:7-10

oh they remember the poor they remember everything everyone has told them we are lazy we are poor cause we are all drunks and drug addicts it has nothing to do with spending all our savings to protect our children it has nothing to do with the fact that we are living in a two parent income society in which we are expected to be great singleparents plus provide plus pay the bills plus give our children all the advantages of the rich and if we dont they its because we are not worthy

you say you love god then help us Robert Hillman R R # 2 Monkton Ontario canada N0K1P0
