Jesus became poor so that you might be rich
Through Jesus we see the love of God. Jesus who was rich most likely supported by his family and the wise men, he was rich. He had a place to lay his head, and lived like a king in his fathers Josephs house though not biological father. Jesus was not a carpenter, it is just translation errors, just go with the king james version it is best. But anyway Jesus had a place to lay his head. When he went into his ministry he let go of all of that, he pretty much lived on the kindness of others. So we see Jesus no longer had where to lay his head. He had no more provision from his parents. He didn't own anything himself rather he let judas in charge of treasury. Jesus was poor, and we can see his poverty becoming to the extreme at his crucifixion, poverty in many ways. He suffered as man who was cursed though he was without sin. So we see that we need to put our trust in Jesus, and he will prosper us. You may be poor now, or just striving for your needs to be met. But God has provided a sacrifice, no one has to lose anymore for another to be rich. Rather God has provided someone to suffer the curse of poverty so that we may receive the blessing of wealth. So have that faith and thank the Father for his son. From now on don't look back to the old way of thinking that you are cursed by God to be poor, rather look forward and see Christ Crucified who became that so we may gain from his loss. It is his gift to us, his love for us. And don't worry he was rewarded for his obedience, likewise you will be rewarded for your faith.
