1 Peter 4:9

9 Be quick to give a meal to the hungry, a bed to the homeless - cheerfully.

1 Peter 4:9 In-Context

7 Everything in the world is about to be wrapped up, so take nothing for granted. Stay wide-awake in prayer.
8 Most of all, love each other as if your life depended on it. Love makes up for practically anything.
9 Be quick to give a meal to the hungry, a bed to the homeless - cheerfully.
10 Be generous with the different things God gave you, passing them around so all get in on it:
11 if words, let it be God's words; if help, let it be God's hearty help. That way, God's bright presence will be evident in everything through Jesus, and he'll get all the credit as the One mighty in everything - encores to the end of time. Oh, yes!
