Worthy

An unexpected and very discouraging struggle we have encountered helping our latest project family has been Christians who have judged her unworthy to be helped. My heart breaks at this thought. My Christian brothers and sisters desire to sit in the place of GOD and say ‘who is worthy to be loved, helped, made safe, fed and clothed’. They say she is not. The LORD said she was….HE said she was… all the way to the cross…where HE paid the highest price for her….HIS own blood.

Without the blood of Christ we all stand before GOD completely guilty. Yet how is it we manage to still point fingers at each other and say….oh no you are more guilty than I. We all deserve the same punishment, death. This is the beauty of grace. He looked down on us in our death, loved us and gave His own life for ours. We are fellow servants commanded to love our neighbor, be humble, be obedient and walk in faith. This is truth…...

He created her. She is His precious child. He bought her. He LOVES her. How can I sit by and say she is not worthy of my help?

Jas 2:1-5 My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. For if a man wearing a gold ring and fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in, and if you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, "You sit here in a good place," while you say to the poor man, "You stand over there," or, "Sit down at my feet," have you not then made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts? Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him?
