Eyes of Faith

While at my 9:00 am Mass, a mother and child walked in front of me, and went to the back of the church to be seated.  The child let out a loud noise and began to talk (I believe the child is autistic)…..I didn't have a problem with the child or his tone, but I did notice (almost) everyone in the church quickly turn around to look at the kid or see where this loud voice was coming from.  I felt bad for the mom, as she was already embarrassed and had many gleaming, unrestful eyes looking at her, as if she just cursed someone in church. As church ended, I made sure to find this mother and her son and took her hand and said, " I'm praying for peace and comfort for you and your son."  I just wanted her to know that they were welcome in our house of worship, and hope that I brought a smile to her heart.

I say all of this for one reason, when someone walks into church, meeting or event late.....don't stare at them.  In fact, don't even look there way!  They already feel uncomfortable and don't need you judging them.

Everyone has something going on in their lives, don't add an embarrassing eye to their life.
