Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
(James 1.27
NRSV)
Mother Teresa once said, "The biggest disease today is not leprosy or cancer. It's the feeling of being uncared for or unwanted, of being deserted and alone. The greatest evil is the lack of love and charity, and an indifference toward one's neighbor who may be the victim of poverty or disease or exploited and at the end of his or her life, left at a roadside."
God of love, may I offer my hand to help and love, as you have helped and loved me. Amen.
