Extra, Extra

Deuteronomy 24:19-22 KJV
[19] When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands. [20] When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow. [21] When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow. [22] And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing. …

This passage emphasizes the importance of sharing, caring, concern, selflessness, and brotherly love. We should consider it a great joy and privilege to share our blessings with others. We should not give with a resentful heart. God always provides for our needs. And He also gives us extras so that He can use us to bless others. Let us not forget that there is always a blessing that comes after helping and sharing.
