Perhaps the kind of mission we should ask for is a mission to the homeless, to those who live in terrible conditions, close to starvation. That would be preaching the Gospel to the poor in a special way. I believe it is our duty to give every Samaritan service asked of us. But I also believe we need special guidance to seek out the destitute, knowing that they may not be called as yet. It needs to be a mission of mercy and compassion.

Yesterday's quote

The center of this new people is the new fire of the new Church; once more there arises around it the dwelling-place of its community. Around the radiant fire of the Holy Spirit its spiritual temple is built up as a tangible house of God. It is the City on the Hill, whose light shines into all lands. Its place of worship burns in spirit; it shines in truth.

The eye is created for the light. In the same measure that the life born of light gains ground, the eye becomes able to bear light.
