"A Person with Eyes to See"

"You don't have to go out into the world to do something useful, she told herself. For a person with eyes to see, there is always something close at hand. Misery, loneliness, sickness, fear. . . ."
--Emily Loring, I Take This Man

  1. Yes, and through prayer we can even be a help to those we can't see.

  2. Oh, this is so true. I love it! Sometimes it is hard to know where to begin to 'help' because I live so far from the most desperate needs, yet often remind myself that there are needs to be met in my own community...in my own *household* at times...it's just a matter of getting the vision. Thank you for this succinct reminder.
