TITLE: Standing For Those For Whom God Stands

TEACHING: Kevin Holland

DATE: 3/1/26

People under great stress. Not sure where the next meal is coming from or where they are going to sleep. At any moment in time danger can be upon them and disaster could strike. Sickness on top of famine plagued by conflict and stalked by tragedy.

The poorest people, and yet the happiest people you have met. Life is hard and life is beautiful. Would willingly share their last meal and give their last dollar. They know how it feels to be remembered and rescued!

Generally good people who often lead the way in giving to others in need. They’re generous but still have more at their disposal. Life goes on and distractions come along. Upgrades, improvements, opportunities and enjoyments.

Dangerous folk with way more than most but never satisfied. They take from the weak and vulnerable who cannot defend themselves. They vilify their prey, projecting their own malintent upon those they attack to justify their evil actions. They have no compassion and always seem to get away with it.

SCRIPTURE: 2 Corinthians 8
