Today I met with a client whose name meant, "keeper of light." I was intrigued by him. He was such a beautiful man with a beautiful spirit. I spoke with him longer than I normally do with people. I was encouraged to look into his eyes based on a conversation in RCIA this week.
The man leading RCIA this week spoke of an experience he had when working in a homeless shelter years ago. He mentioned how he was drawn to a homeless mans eyes and as he talked they seemed to get bluer and bluer. He felt God in that moment.
Today, I couldn't help but wonder if this client in need of food and medicine today was an angel. Maybe he wasn't, just the poor in need. But it is among the poor that God dwells.
Please take a moment to look at the photo above. It's called "Christ of the Breadline" by Fritz Eichenberg. I hope it speaks to you as it did me.
