The poor amongst us
Went to the bank on sat to bank in a cheque and to get a new passbook.
The teller was trying to convince a man not to close and open an accoun too often. The man was in his forties. He has tattoo on his legs and arms. Not the new generation tattoo but the old style, with some deities design.
Fianlly, he agreed to keep the account and on the advise of the teller, withdrawn the maximum amount of case he could, $3. He told her that he could use to buy a package of lunch.
It may not occur to many that we do have the poor amongst us and they are not that easy to notice. They are sometime struggling to have their next meal met. I think I am guilty of being ignorant of their plight and stuggle. That ignorant results in being not a good steward of my own money.
Lord, may I not forget the poor in our midst and may I be a good steward of what You have given me. Amen.
