Read the story of the sheep and the goats in Matthew 25:31-46 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+25%3A31-46&version=NIV). 

Giving food and water are part of the Christian vocation and is rooted in the creation account we discussed earlier. What implications might this have on the role of industries such as textiles (think of cotton and wool), agriculture, and water supply networks in God’s work on Earth?

You may find John Wesley’s reflection on this passage helpful. He said that money in the hands of God’s  children “is food for the hungry, drink for the thirsty, raiment for the naked: It gives to the traveler and the stranger where to lay his head. By it we may supply the place of a husband to the widow, and of a father to the fatherless. We may be a defense for the oppressed, a means of health to the sick, of ease to them that are in pain; it may be as eyes to the blind, as feet to the lame; yea, a lifter up from the gates of death!” (The Use of Money).
