When have we seen you naked?

Last Sundays service has left me so moved that I must comment on it. The theme of the sheep and the goats meant we had to ask some difficult questions at service. One of them, 'have you ever been hungry, thirsty, a stranger, destitute' was answered powerfully by a man from Sierra Leon. He had been taken hostage during the war and nearly died. He escaped but was left destitute, with nothing. Many did not bother to help him. He was found by a woman from Medecins San Frontieres, who helped him. Amazingly, MSF were to be featured in our prayers for the first time in the three years we have been running SoulSpace.

His story was the perfect illustration of the difference in attitude of those who are already in hell, and those already in heaven. Thank you God for his story of hope.
