Sharing The Pain Of Others
Sermons on the Gospel Readings
"Rags, rags! Give me your tired, dirty, and old rag and I will give you a fresh, clean, and new one. Rags, rags." That was the cry to which I awoke one bright sunny Friday morning. I sprang from my bed and peered out my second--story apartment window. There he was: the Ragman of our town. He was 6'4" if he was an inch, youthful in appearance and strong of build. I had heard so much about him but never actually seen him. I threw on some clothes, bounded down the stairs, and ran out the front door of my apartment building. I thought, this is my opportunity to see where he goes and what he does.
