God, If You Want This, You Send Them

By Sister Barbara Paleczny, SSND

At A Better Tent City, in Kitchener, Ontario, where I organize the Clothes Closet with people who are homeless or live in tiny 7x9 foot cabins, I had offered to give neck and shoulder and/or hand massages.  

They're hesitant to accept.   

One day I prayed, "God, if you want this, you send them." That afternoon, six people came.   

As I massaged the dried, weathered hands of a young woman, I whispered, "Thank you, Jesus."   

This was Christmas in July.  

I/ we celebrate Incarnation in all creation every day.

I love how God is truly present in you and me.
