Have you been kind to the poor according to your ability?

And remember that the moment Zaccheus resolved to do right to every body, and to be kind to the poor, our Lord tells him, that salvation was then come to his house.

For which purpose before I leave you, as I have concluded my former Visits with prayer, I must request you, and those about you, to join with me again; therefore let us devoutly pray.
