A homeless person the world cares about...


One of the child stars of Slumdog Millionaire is homeless after authorities in Mumbai destroyed the house he was living in with his parents. (story here)
The really depressing thing is that the majority of people are disturbed merely because they felt a connection to him as a result of the success of the film.
The homeless and poor are frequently ignored because they remain faceless and unknown to us. Yet each of them offers us an opportunity to encounter Christ. May we be equally disturbed wherever we encounter need and want.
