To love them


To love them is
to live him, often
the only way
to love him. To love
them in their anger,
to love them in all
their ugliness and
meanness, to love them
in their brutality
and hatred is to love
him. No one, not even
one, knew that love,
and faith, were
opportunities
of the hands.

"In as much as you've done unto one of the least..." Thanks Glynn, this is powerful.

"To love them is to love Him . . ." How we so often need this reminder, Glynn!
Blessings!
