Each day, take a good look at that face before you and see, in the light of God’s grace, the face of God reflected in that precious face. Know that while each distinct feature is unique there is a common blueprint for both of you. See the beauty or frailty, as the case may be, as the characteristic given to the individual and the trust given to you. The embrace, then, is an embrace of pure love and trust. Don’t turn your back to the other’s plea. As you look at each other face to face and see the face of God, you move the home and history in the right direction. May that be our joy and hope.
