James 2:5
Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him?

Sometimes those who think they are rich needs to see that salvation can be gained and that the poor is richer than they are.

I like this verse as it reminds me when ever I read it. We are to serve not be served. We need to follow in Jesus's foot steps. Sometimes I need the reminder.

It is alright to be poor and be content with what God has given us. Sometimes I desire more but all my needs have been met. When I find myself wanting more I should stop those thoughts and thank god for what I have, because I have all I need and he has insured that.

Peter G. from Timonium, MD said:
This is just a thought. I don't mean it to be judgmental, especially when I am no where near the man I should be. I sometimes think these new plants that start churches on the fringe of cities instead of deeper into the cities are missing the point. Though God wants all to be save, He chose the poor to be rich in faith. All need God but I think revival and change would come to a city if we went to the poor. Many are going to the poor, I need to consider what this means for me. My thinking isn't completely developed in this area - just wanted to through it out there. What do you think?
