If we are to rank the top 5 problems of the country, pretty sure POVERTY would be part of it, and even would topped the rest. Poverty refers to the state of lacking basic necessities. It is really a serious problem in our country not just today but even before technology hasn’t been developed yet. The huge difference between a continuous development of high-technology in the country and a rampant increase in poverty is yet to be identified. No one claims that he has the precise answer to that problem. Even the most powerful leaders couldn’t agree more. As we see this situation, the best thing to do is to manage poverty, if we think we could not eradicate it. Poverty may be a result of someone’s action such as unequal distribution of goods by the persons-in-authority or termed as corruption. But remember that it could also be a result of your own doing as well. Someone said “It’s not your fault if you were born poor, but to die poor, that’s a different story”. We can pray to God, but we should keep rowing towards the shore. Doing our part wouldn’t be that hard as much as how God takes possession of our flaws and weaknesses. The Lord invites each and everyone of us to be a “hero of the poor”. If we don’t like our jobs, if we don’t like the status of our relationships, or we simply don’t like the state of our lives – we have no one to blame but ourselves, because God has given us free will. A simple advice from the well renowned speaker and author Bo Sanchez “STOP COMPARING, AND START LIVING! AND YOU’LL BE HAPPIER WITH YOUR LIFE. THE LORD GUARANTEES”. ;) -heigel
