MY CATHOLIC UPBRINGING.....
As I walked down the busy footpath, knowing I was late for an important meeting, my eye fell upon one of those unfortunate, homeless vagabonds that are found in every city these days. Some people turned to stare. Others quickly looked away as if the sight would somehow contaminate them.
Recalling some long ago priest who made an admonition to 'care for the sick, feed the hungry and clothe the naked,' I was moved by some powerful inner urge to reach out to this unfortunate person.
Wearing what can only be described as rags, carrying every worldly possession in two plastic bags, my heart was touched by this persons condition.
Yes, where some people saw only rags, I saw a hidden beauty A small voice inside my head called out, 'Reach out, reach out!' Click on More to see the rest...
So I did.......
I Won't be at Mass this week.
