"The rich won't help you, for they are too afraid of losing what they have. But the poor, who have nothing to lose, will welcome you, and in their simplicity, they will show you the beauty of God's love."

"We are called to witness to the fact that God is a God of the poor, the weak, and the oppressed, and that God's heart is where the poor are." "We are called to be peacemakers, to heal the wounds, to bring people together, and to make the church a true sanctuary for the weary and the heavy-laden."

Tomorrow is the ECONOMIC BOYCOTT I won’t be making a single purchase. Who’s with me?

“The call of Christ is not to give attention to the powerful, the wealthy, and the influential, but to the ones who are forgotten, rejected, and marginalized by society.”

Poverty is not just about lack of financial resources. It is about exclusion, loneliness, and the absence of opportunities to love and be loved. When we see the suffering of others, our first instinct should not be to judge, but to listen. There is always a deeper story behind each person’s pain.

“Every human being has a name, a face, and a story. When we treat people as statistics, we fail to see them as God sees them.”

“To dismiss the suffering as weak or unworthy is to reject Christ Himself, who chose to suffer with and for us.” “Whenever we speak or act in ways that strip dignity from the suffering, we stand against the God who made them in His image.”

"Now is the time, not tomorrow, not some more convenient season. It is today that our best work can be done and not some future day or future year. It is today that we fit ourselves for the greater usefulness of tomorrow." — W. E. B. Du Bois 🌱📷

May we resist the hate and shame the devil. Always. Revolutionary love is the weapon. Revolutionary love is the resistance.

“We lose our own humanity when we strip others of theirs in the name of safety and order.”

"If leaders do not stand with the weak and the vulnerable, they have abandoned their true calling."

“Wealth and power make us blind to the suffering of others. The more we cling to them, the harder it is to see our neighbor’s pain.”

“Our world is full of hatred, bitterness, and divisiveness, but the voice of God speaks a different word: ‘You are my beloved.’ If we listen to that voice, we can move beyond resentment and embrace love.” — Life of the Beloved
