Before you look down on the brother or sister in humble unfortunate circumstances please consider their status in Christ Jesus, because their status is elevated in Him. I have said this before but I will say it again that perhaps this is how our Lord levels the playing field.
This is one of my favorite scriptures;
James 2:5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and in their position as believers and to inherit the kingdom which He has promised to those who love Him?
Do not despise the poor in Christ because the poor in Christ are actually very rich.
To all the covetous people out there you have your reward and after this life you ain't got nothing coming.
Luke 16:25 But Abraham said, Child, remember that you in your lifetime fully received [what is due you in] comforts and delights, and Lazarus in like manner the discomforts and distresses; but now he
is comforted here and you are in anguish.
In the end and when the tally is all added up, unquestionably we know that GOD is just.
Is 49:4(b)......Yet surely the justice due to Me is with the LORD, And My reward with My God."
