Cast your bread upon the waters,
for after many days you will find
it again.
( Ecclesiastes 11:1-2 *NIV )
Dear Addison,
Many people have wondered what is meant by "Cast
your bread upon the water, and you will find it." Well, it is
An old Hebrew Idiom meaning to give to charity and it will
be returned to you.
After all it is written; He who is kind to
the poor lends to the LORD, and he will
reward him for what he has done. This is
because; There will always be poor people
in the land. Therefore I command you
to be openhanded toward your brothers
and toward the poor and needy in your
land.
( Proverbs 19:17 ) ( Deuteronomy 15:11 )
So Addison, always remember those who are in need,
and the homeless among us: So the poor have hope,
and injustice shuts its mouth. After all our Savior
Jesus Christ said; 'I tell you the truth, whatever
you did for one of the least of these brothers
of mine, you did for me.' Amen.
( Matthew 25:40 )
Have a Wonderful Week, Addison, and may: The
grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your
spirit. Amen. ( Philippians 4:23 )
All My Love & Prayers,
Pastor Allen
