1. God wants us
to be our brother's keeper.
2. To feed the hungry,
to clothe the naked,
to shelter the homeless,
to instruct the ignorant,
at a personal sacrifice,
is what God
wants us to do.
3. What we give to the poor
for Christ's sake
is what we carry with us
when we die.
4. As Jean-Jacques Rousseau says:
"When man dies
he carries
in his clutches hands
only that which
he has given away."
