I believe that this story relates to our inquiry unit because it is all about helping someone. The man has given a poor person food, give him clothes, he welcomed him into his life, visited him and helped him get though a hard time.
The man who has given has not expected anything in return he just wanted to help the man.
Many people would be willing to give Jesus Food/Water or help him if he was sick and dying on the side of road but many people would just walk past a homeless man in the city. people in our generation need to realise that everyone has a right and no one I better than anybody else. if we see someone sick or homeless, give them you change or you toasted sandwich which you buy everyday from the bakery.
These homeless would take food for granted not like us, we can go out and get our average household's amount of groceries and cook for ourselves. these people cant cook cant buy!
So what can they do?
They go rummaging though bins looking for scraps or try to get the last drop out of a coffee.
