I wanted to see such conversation for my school project and this has proved to be a great support for me. I think that people like you will definitely bring about a change in the social and economic order of this world. Sometimes i feel that it is more comfortable being poor rather than rich. This has awakened me. Thank you so much Thanks a lot 4 sharing this. I wanted to see such conversation for my school project and this has proved to be a great support for me.

Egypt has the biggest Middle Class in the middle east but still an overwhelming amount of poor. When the poor are begging my skin colour immediately makes me richer when in fact I am way down the scale compared to many Middle Class Egyptians. It's odd how colour is seen as immediately rich. I also like the answer to the last question. It's funny because that is kind of the argument against socialism from many American's! I often find the best thing to do for the poor in an immediate sense is buy them some food to take a meal worry away and give them your time for a chat.... I found giving money often get's misused and have seen kids run off and buy coca cola rather then feeding themselves with more filling food.... I don't blame them though, they are kids after all!

Here in the Philippines, my week's salary is not even enough to support a "prisoners' rehab program". But here I am in this prison ministry. And for myself, what's left is not even more than 10% of the amount. And from that, I give an offering to Bible studies for the women in the neighborhood. Because of you have Crhist's compassion, you cannot just ignore the needs of the poor and the oppressed. God Bless us! Perhaps I should say I am “rich” a little less than you.
