Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
Yes Jesus believes that lowly people are valuable. He spent much time with the poor, sick, lame, the downtrodden, the blind. These people are the ones who we should invite to a reception and we will be blessed, since they do not have the means to repay us, but our reward will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.

Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
Yes, I have always thought so. Maybe then there is hope for me in what I do for a living, since I work with the excluded of society.

This lesson keeps me going in the work that I do. Maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel and I will see the benfit of what I do. I do not mean a rise in salary but the success of those I am trying to teach.

Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
Yes he does for he is the one who lifts them up when they call to him.They are the ones he works through to show his glory to the non saved.When a person reaches that state of being lowly usually they have no one else to turn to but God, and he shows himself to such for many to see that it wasn`t by anybody`s power nor mighty to come out of such lowly state but God alone.Mark 12:41-44 The widow who gave all she had and just trusted in God alone and he proves himself to such and his favors rest on such devotional giving.

Befriending and Promoting the Lowly
Jesus came for the poor and the sick. He came to show his glory to the world through that which is neglected , rejected and unsuitable or unworthy of his glory and grace. Just to show his kingdom to all humanity.He is the father that embrasses a prodigal son after loosing all his possition on things that could have destroyed him. In the same manner should we as his followers be. Looking for nothing in return of what we do but in all things we give back the glory and honor to him.

Now all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming near Him to listen to Him. And both the Pharisees and the scribes began to grumble, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them." ( Luke 15:1-2)

Then some children were brought to Him so that He might lay His hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." ( Matthew 19:13-14)

He called the twelve and said to them, "If any one wants to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all." And taking a child , He stood him in the midst of them; and taking him in His arms, He said to them, "Whoever receives one child like this in My name is receiving Me; and whoever receives Me is not receiving Me, but Him who sent Me." ( Mark 9:35-37)

And He sat down opposite the treasury, and began observing how the multitude were putting money into the treasury; and many rich people were putting in large sums. And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amount to a cent. And calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, "Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the contributors to the treasury; for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on." ( Mark 12:41-44)

There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink." For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food. The Samaritan woman therefore said to Him, ‘How is it that You, being a Jew, ask me for a drink since I am a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) ( John 4:7-9)

And it came about when He went into the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees on the Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching Him closely…And he went on to say to the one who had invited Him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and repayment come to you. But when you give a reception, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, since they do not have the means to repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous." ( Luke :-1-:1)
