Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">With all the talk of fishing in the New Testament, you would think this quote came from the Bible. But it doesn\u2019t; it is a <a href=\"https:\/\/quoteinvestigator.com\/2015\/08\/28\/fish\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chinese proverb<\/a>, among many other contested theories. The critical idea we should take from this is how we help others. We are commanded to be good stewards of all God has entrusted us. We are also commended for helping others when we have the means to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>1 Peter 4:10<\/strong>, \u201cAs each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God&#8217;s varied grace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">We have this challenge of using what God has given us to support our families while simultaneously being obedient to God\u2019s call. There is a visual worldly Impact of material poverty, but there is also the hidden darkness of spiritual poverty. Alleviating spiritual poverty is restoring people to express their humanity fully. It is about helping them become the person that God created. In some cases, this is helping them to fulfill their calling of glorifying God by working and supporting their families and themselves with the fruit of that work. At other times it is lifting them out of their spiritual quagmire to recognize that they were created in the image of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Luke 16:10<\/strong>, \u201cOne who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Both situations require effort. Both situations require resources. The most important aspect is knowing where you fit in God\u2019s plan for another. It is understanding the balancing act of helping to alleviate suffering while not getting in the way of God\u2019s intended purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The poor feel powerlessness and an inability to make themselves heard. \u00a0\u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/documents.worldbank.org\/en\/publication\/documents-reports\/documentdetail\/131441468779067441\/voices-of-the-poor-can-anyone-hear-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Voices of the Poor<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The spiritual poor live without hope and under the yoke of silence. Because they see the world as a finite entity run by rules that favor others, they feel it is impossible to achieve true peace. This, in turn, silences their cries for help. They don\u2019t know if God will hear them or even care about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Where does fishing come into play? The easiest way to solve a problem is to paint over the cracks. Most spiritual poverty is met with platitudes and shallow intentions. We give people fish to get them through the crisis they are experiencing. It alleviates their immediate pain, which makes us feel good. Sifting everything down to a project is easier than getting involved in people&#8217;s messy lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In the book \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/6595233-when-helping-hurts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">When Helping Hurts<\/a>,\u201d giving someone a fish falls into the category of Relief. Relief is about stopping the bleeding. It\u2019s a bandage. It is temporary. Sometimes this is needed. But stopping at Relief eventually leaves the person right back where they started. The bandage has to be replaced, or it becomes reinfected. The next step, Rehabilitation, is about teaching someone to fish. It is about making them strong enough to survive without you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>1 Corinthians 4:2<\/strong>, \u201cMoreover, it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">When we stop Relief, we have exercised Kingdom Intent with minimal Kingdom Impact. We\u2019ve demonstrated compassion without expanding the Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Telling someone that you will pray for them is giving them a fish. Teaching them to pray with you helps them learn how to fish for themselves. Demonstrating to them the power of pouring out your heart to God shows them the real possibilities of salvation. The same is true with telling them about your church instead of picking them up and taking them to church. Quoting verses from the Bible, verses teaching them to study the Bible with you. Giving a fish is always easier than teaching to fish. But giving someone a fish is short-term. Once the immediate pain is resolved, attention goes elsewhere until they are in pain again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Titus 2:7<\/strong>, \u201cShow yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Once the bleeding stop, Rehabilitation starts. Rehabilitation is about restoration. Rehabilitation is about giving people the tools to solve their problems. It is teaching them to fish for themselves. Alleviating spiritual poverty is about creating an environment where people can experience God\u2019s love for themselves. This takes effort. You have to see the person, not just the immediate problem. You have to want them to have the same Godly experience that you have experienced. You must be willing to invest in them for the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Most of us are good at Kingdom Intent. We want to help others, but the worldly issues of family and jobs limit our impact. We are willing to contribute to the cost of a bandage, but we don\u2019t want to invest the effort of continued healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Kingdom impact moves someone from a limited worldview to an eternal spiritual view. &nbsp;Long after you have gone, God will still be working in their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>Matthew 6:19-21<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">\u201cLay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cGive a man a fish, and you feed him for a day.
