"And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me" (Matthew 25:40) The way we treat others is how we have treated God. I have heard people say "I won't give anything to these people. They'll only use it to buy booze." What they do with it is their business. I'm held accountable only for helping others. I LOVED this. God bless all of us. Matthew Why should we care?

“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me” (Matthew 25:40)

The way we treat others is how we have treated God. I have heard people say “I won’t give anything to these people. They’ll only use it to buy booze.” What they do with it is their business. I’m held accountable only for helping others.

I LOVED this.

God bless all of us.
Matthew

Next time, do not turn your eyes away from me and hurry on your way..stop and look into my eyes and listen to my heart. THEN the filmmakers will be successful. Blessings on all.....
