“A faithful friend is priceless... it is an assured refuge...
he who finds him has found a treasure...” Ben Sira
In this time of pandemic, how many people have stood up to reach out to isolated friends?
I have found this treasure. Many come to render a service, call or simply stop by for a brief visit to break the loneliness and to acknowledge that I exist.
For my part, according to my possibilities, I provide a moment on the phone to lonely people by listening and serving.
Living in faith in the present moment. “My neighbour gives me the chance to detect the image of God in him. ˮ Father Parent
So let us give thanks to God for all these small gestures being experienced throughout the world.
