Luke 3:10-11 “And the people asked him, saying, 'What shall we do then?' He answered and saith unto them, 'He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.'”
A crowd had gathered to hear John, the son of Zacharias, (John the Baptist), preach and were now asking him what they could do to obey the Lord. Our passage today shows what we are to do when we come upon someone who is in need. Share what we have.
God is pleased when we take something of ours and give it to someone who needs it. Not only does it show Him our willingness to help others, it demonstrates our Faith that He will provide for us. There is another lesson here as well.
If we do not take care of ourselves we will have nothing to give to others.
