Bible Quote by Will Davis Jr
““The resources God gives us are to be used for the benefit of others, not ourselves. That’s what so many of the Old Testament prophets said about justice: it shouldn’t be only for those who can pay for it. Rather, those with more than enough need to make sure that those with less than enough get justice as well.””
