Imagine that you go where no one else wanted to go;doing there things that for many are filthy or unworthy ones.
Losing your own face in the literal sense –
finally, exposing yourself to ridicule even after your death.
St Damien of Molokai knew that the most difficult path of one's life may be at the same time the most rewarding one.
He was not a great martyr. He had just followed His Master to the end, trusted that without Golgotha there would be no Eden.
Are you able to go wherever Jesus tells you to...
To see His Face now – while looking at your neighbour-
To see His Face forever – while looking at your Creator?

Tomasz, Racibórz
