1 Timothy 5:3, 4 - Honor widows who are really widows. But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety at home and to repay their parents; for this is good and acceptable before God.

James 1:27 - Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.[NKJV]

("Visit" in this verse doesn't mean, "Go see;" it means "to look upon in order to help or benefit;" in other words, to be mindful of them in order to give aid and comfort.)
