“You pray for the hungry Then you feed them This is how prayer works”

Pope Francis

Simplified Meaning:

When you care about someone who is hungry, you ask for help through prayer. But to make a real difference, you must follow up by actually giving them food. This means that prayer alone isn't enough; it needs to be backed by actions. Think about it like this: if your friend is struggling with their schoolwork and you hope they do better, it's good to encourage them. But for them to really improve, you might also help them study. In the same way, prayer or good wishes are the first step, but doing something practical to help shows that you truly care. So, when you pray or wish for something good, remember that taking action to help make it happen is just as important. If you want to help others, don't just hope things will get better – do something to make a change. This combination of hope and action is powerful.
