. Be a refuge for them
Psalm 9:9-10
The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.
. Remember their weakness
Psalm 103:13
As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;
. Hide them
Psalm 27:5
For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock.
. Consider them
Psalm 31:7
I will be glad and rejoice in your love, for you saw my affliction and knew the anguish of my soul.
. Give them sufficient grace
2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. ” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

. George Muller had run and orphanage in England in the early 1800s that cared for 5,000 children. He had made a vow never to ask people directly for anything, but to ask God instead to inspire them to provide food, clothing, money, or whatever else was needed. He eventually received more than 50 million British pounds in donations, all without ever asking anybody for anything. – Unknown
