In a little Leprosy colony in the more rural part of Chennai, India we drove out with the medical clinic to clean out the wounds of the leprosy affected. It was a long drive. I got to clean one man's feet. There were four other volunteers and a doctor there who could have done it. this man can't even feel that his foot is infected and is falling off. He feels none of that pain. And by the time his foot falls off or his hand falls off he'll be so old he'll most likely die soon after. Why am I sacrificing so much to wash the feet of a man who I've never met and who I will never see again? Because the worth of every soul is great in the sight of God.
