Reading: I think another reason the Lord made us poor was this‑so that we must ever be asking for an alms in His sweet name. This is saving the world. Alms given in the Name of Christ is. saving people from God's anger. Every alms given in the name of religion pleases God and it softens His heart towards sinful earth. for that alms. is the cradle given to the Divine Infant. It is the bed given to His Son. It is ministering to the needs of the Incarnate Word. (MCM, p. 299)
