These scriptures remind us that as parents we currently have not only a physical responsibility but a spiritual responsibility to care for those in our family. There are many references in God's Word telling us of our responsibility to CARE for the orphans, the widows, the hungry, the poor and the needy. God instructed the kids of Israel under Moses, when they were wandering in the desert, that they were to take attention of their families, and not only their families but the widows, the fatherless and their neighbors.
