The dictionary definition of weakness is, " the state or condition of being weak."" As Christians, we feel tenderly towards those who have a weakness. We feel protective of them, as we know that they may not be as strong mentally or physically. In today's society, the weakest people are the very young and the very old. .
As Christians we are kind to the very young, for instance newborn babies, as we feel protective over them as they are very small and cannot tell people if they have a problem. So Christians are very protective and make sure that they are cared for and in no pain.
As Christians we are also considerate to the very old. We are always ready to assist the elderly in tasks they are unable to complete, and as with newborn babies feel protective over them as we know that as people get older their bodies find it harder to fight against illnesses and such, so we make sure that the elderly are well looked after. Unlike newborn babies, the elderly do have the ability to tell someone if they are in pain but can sometimes find it hard to make their voices heard, so as Christians we make sure that the elderly are alive and healthy.
As Christians we support the weak, and so we also support charities that do the same. An example of this is Cafod. As a charity cafod help the poor and the sick in third world countries. As Christians we feel a need to also help the unfortunate and so we support theses charities by donating and offering our services at fundraising events.
Christ helped the poor and the sick. Examples of this can be found in the bible,.
"Jesus took a blind man out of the village and spat upon his eyes. He placed his hands on the mans eyes and said, can you see?' the man replied, yes, but the people look like trees. Jesus replaced his hands on the mans eyes and said, can you see clearly?' the man replied, yes!' .
" Jesus led a great army of followers up a hill away from the village.
