Jesus decided to go outside the Israelites, the high priests, the wealthy and the clean to include the poor and blind and deaf in his mercy and salvation. He pours forth a gift of faith and watches to see if the called will serve with and show faith and good works! Even the poor will be welcome at the table of love and bread. They will open up and extend themselves to the needy. Include the needy in their boundaries, as Christ did.
James 2:1-10, 11-13, 14-17.

The Golden Era
by Claudia Serea
Wealth was measured in cream for coffee
and chicken for soup.
The days of the rich
were made of imported chocolate
and hair spray.
The days of the poor
were of cold tea
and thin air.
It was the time when God
was taking orders in a restaurant
and delivered steak and fondue
to only one part of the town.
On the town streets,
the saints were walking without shoes.
It was a time when no one talked
but everyone clapped
and sang.
We found out we were happy
from the news.
It was a time
when no one told us
what would happen,
but everyone knew.
