If one has a humbling and ennobling awe of the beauty and purpose in creation, one will never overlook or despise any of God's little ones.
Without design and without searching, I once found an unexpected treasure. One day in early autumn, while traveling in Queens County in New York City, in a district known as Jamaica, I came upon a large wooden sign, red with gold lettering, bearing the words “Church of the Incarnation — Roman Catholic.” I had seen the sign too late to see the church itself. But I saw, stretching from the corner on which the sign stood, two three-story buildings of red brick with sand-colored trim — a convent and a school. I resolved to take a better look at them and to see the church.
“The incarnation is the supreme assertion that only through the highest medium, which is humanity, can the highest messages be given to mankind.” — Phillips Brooks
