Living in Poverty

Here is an excellent portrayal of what it is like to live in poverty...it breaks down all the expenses that you and I have each month and sets it against the poverty level that 27% of people in the Montgomery area live in. Can you live on that amount? I certainly couldn't. Not with a family of four.

There are more struggles than we middle class minded folks know. It is easy to be critical/judgemental of those who struggle in poverty. It is harder to be compassionate and helpful. Which will you choose today?

Pray for all followers of Christ in the Greater Montgomery area to live this verse this week as we go about our days.

 "Those who are gracious to the poor lend to the Lord,and the Lord will fully repay them".   Proverbs 19:17
