To visit orphans and widows in their tribulation, James 1:27

What does the Christian life look like, according to God's Word?

"Religion pure and undefiled before the God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their tribulation; to keep oneself unstained by the world." (James 1:27)

It would make sense and follow Christ's example to understand "visit orphans and widows" literally and spiritually:
- A "literal" orphan or widow is one who lacks people protecting and helping them.
- A "spiritual" orphan or widow is one who has lost their spiritual relationship with the spiritual Father Almighty in Heaven, and the spiritual husband of the Church, Jesus Christ.

Imagine if every Christian would practice their religion this way: visiting orphans and widows (literal and spiritual ones) in their situation of tremendous difficulty. Let's pray for it for the glory of God in Jesus's name.
