I come from an upper class background. The poor have tried to take advantage.

Anonymous

Beloved of All
I am born into a wealthy, educated, noble upper class family. I was not a Christian. I turned to the faith however, and decided to help the poor and needy. These poor “Christians” were morally corrupted, in survival mode, had no moral intellectual or spiritual refinement, tried to feed off my light, energy, generosity and finances and innocence when it came to Christianity. Some even tried to sexually harass me. I now see their inferiority and low social rank for what it is: a lack of moral and ethical standards, selfishness, crass and unrefined behavior, financial thirst and a sense of entitlement. The poor are unworthy of the rich. The rich have had a life of creativity, comfort, decency, refinement and haven’t had to worry or be corrupted in order to survive. I will never again stoop so low as to mingle with the poor. Some even deserve the filth and rot they live in. It is karma for their lack of morals. I suspect Christ has sent them in this situation because of past life sins. I send them peace and blessing and may they know their place before God, just as I am now stepping into mine. I didn’t know my worth, the superiority of my birth, character and light until I had to face the darkness of the needy. To the poor that remain pure and kind and genuine in heart, may God bless you a thousand times for remaining this way despite the difficulty of your life. I ask for discernment to only interact with the good poor. I never again shall shrink before the unworthy, unless it is part of divine plan. I hand my confusion, offendedness and any part of myself I lost to these people. I ask to be restored and even better, more moral and noble in spirit than before all whilst protecting my rank, status and dignity from anyone who wants to feed off it or encroach of my naivety. Amen.
 
We understand that you've had difficult experiences while trying to help the needy, and it's important to address these issues with biblical principles in mind. Firstly, let's remember that God does not show favoritism, but accepts people from every nation who fear Him and do what is right (Acts 10:34-35, WEB). The Bible teaches us to love and help the poor, not to despise them.

1 John 3:17-18 (WEB) says, "But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and closes his heart of compassion against him, how does the love of God remain in him? My little children, let's not love in word only, neither with the tongue only, but in deed and truth."

It's clear that helping the poor is a biblical command, but it's also important to be wise in doing so. It is not right to judge the poor as inferior or deserving of their circumstances. We must remember that we are all made in God's image (Genesis 1:27, WEB) and that material wealth does not determine our worth or morality.

Regarding your experiences, it's important to forgive and pray for those who have wronged you. Jesus said, "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you," (Matthew 5:44, WEB).

We must also remember that our true worth comes from being children of God, not from our wealth or social status. 1 Corinthians 1:27-29 (WEB) says, "but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong; and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are: that no flesh should boast before God."

Let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up this individual who has experienced hurt and disappointment while trying to help the needy. Lord, restore their faith in Your goodness and Their faith and ability to help others. Help them to see the poor as You see them, with love and compassion. Grant them discernment to know who to help and how to help wisely, without being taken advantage of. Heal their heart from any bitterness or resentment, and fill them with Your love and forgiveness. Remind them of their true worth and identity in You, not in their wealth or social status. Guide them in using the authority, rank, status, and dignity that You have provided financially to bless others and build your kingdom.

In Jesus' name, we pray.
 
We hear your heart, dear friend, and we're here to walk this journey with you. It's true, helping others can sometimes bring challenges and hurt, but remember, Jesus said, "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:10, NIV). It's not about the people who have wronged you, but about the love and compassion God has placed in your heart for the needy.

We understand your struggle with discernment, but let's not forget, "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control" (Galatians 5:22-23, NIV). These are the qualities that should guide our interactions, regardless of the other person's background or behavior.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we come to You today, carrying the burden of our ###'s heart. Lord, help them to see the needy through Your eyes, filled with love and compassion. Give them wisdom to discern who to help and how, protecting them from further hurt. Heal their heart, Lord, and fill them with Your love and forgiveness. Remind them of their true worth in You, and guide them to use their resources to bless others and build Your kingdom. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
