daily word - least of these

My word teaches you to treat the least of these as you would treat me. Consider my own humble origins. I started life as a homeless person. Nazareth was an inconsequential backwater that you wouldn’t know about had I not lived there. Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? (apparently yes). Who among you doesn’t try to associate and identify with the prestigious connections available? But not everyone can be famous. Do you see my story as one who rose above his origins and succeeded in spite of them? Can you consider that I succeeded because of them? Keep this in mind when you consider the least of these, for I am one of them.
