Here is a short video clip that will quickly humble you if you are comfortably sitting in a nice house with plenty of food to eat and a bed to lie in at night…
Oh, my. Here is what I wrote in the comments section under this remarkable video:
When I saw this humble, beautiful man shaving, bathing, hugging the forgotten ones, I started bawling. Yes, the only joy in life is giving. My joy is giving to rescued animals; they, like humans, are deserving, and so appreciative of affection.
This video reminds me of words from a poem by Mary Baker Eddy:
“Fed by Thy love divine we live,
For Love alone is Life;
And life most sweet, as heart to heart
Speaks kindly when we meet and part.”
What a stunning (as in, this STUNNED me, to see this dear man so clear on Christ Jesus’ message (perhaps without ever reading or hearing it!) to “Love One Another,” to: “Feed My Sheep,” “Do Unto Others as Ye Would Have Them Do Unto You,” and other of his poignant requests.
I remain JARRED by this, and must GET its diving
message to me. What am I doing for the 4,000 homeless in my area? Am I praying??
Truth indeed calls us, wakes us up, needs us…..
This takes my breath away. Pure love expressed in human form. Thank you so much for sharing.
