When disaster strikes—whether through the sudden violence of nature or the slow accumulation of human indifference—we meet ourselves in the faces of those who suffer. Today’s news carries the weight of loss and displacement, of people caught between systems that move slowly, borders that shift, and ground that shakes without warning. The verse does not ask us to solve these crises or to assign blame, but to notice those who are hungry, thirsty, stranger, naked, sick, imprisoned—to see them as Christ sees them. In a world where catastrophe and vulnerability seem to multiply faster than our capacity to respond, perhaps the question is not whether we can fix everything, but whether we are willing to turn toward the suffering rather than away.
