The Reward of Kindness

Based on Psalm 41

He that considers the poor will be delivered by Jehovah from the time of trouble and inherit the new Earth. In the meantime God will strengthen them to endure their sufferings.
In the midst of painful disease and the triumph of our enemies we may cry out for forgiveness and God will forgive and uphold us in our integrity because we trust in him and bless him.

I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me. John 13:18
Jesus experienced this, and it is something that his followers will be called to experience.

Think of those who are less fortunate than you, to help them and Jesus will repay you one day.
However, in the short term you can expect ungratefulness and even betrayal.

Reach out in love to those who need any kind of assistance you can render, do not be concerned if they are not grateful; but do it as a kindness to Jesus.
