Giving to the Needy - Ravi Chandran

Matthew 6:1-4 states, “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

While generosity is encouraged in the bible, hypocrisy is shunned. Jesus said we will always have the poor with us. There are a multitude of reasons why poor people exist, but acts of kindness toward the needy are encouraged, as God Himself will reward such an act. It is also vital to note that there is a difference between the needy, and greedy. Greed scams should not be rewarded, but exposed, and avoided under all circumstances God's reward for generosity includes His constant supply to nourish those who nourish others, so the process can be repeated.
