"Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will reward them for what they have done." — Proverbs 19:17

What if the moments that inconvenience us are actually invitations from God?

In this episode of Everyday Joy, Ash is joined by Lydia to explore what Proverbs 19:17 teaches about generosity, compassion, and seeing people the way Jesus does.

Together, they unpack why caring for others isn't just a nice thing to do—it's at the very heart of God's character. Ash shares a powerful personal story of feeling prompted by God to stop for a homeless man, discovering that obedience isn't always about the outcome, but about saying "yes" when God asks us to act.

This conversation challenges us to look beyond our comfort, recognise the quiet promptings of the Holy Spirit, and remember that every act of kindness—whether it's a meal, a conversation, a coffee, or simply noticing someone—is an opportunity to love Jesus by loving others.

If you've ever wondered whether the small acts of kindness really matter, this episode is a beautiful reminder that God sees every act of compassion, and that simple obedience can have an eternal impact.
