I recently talked
to a man who told me his normal work schedule had to change because, “I need to
help a homeless man move.” My first though was, how does that work? If a man is
homeless where does he move from and where does he move to? However, once I put
his comment into a spiritual context I heard Jesus say, “Then the righteous
will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and
give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you
in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in
prison and go to visit you?’ “The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth,
whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me’
(Matt 25:37-40 NIV).
