Tom Bernardo, the founder of many orphanages in England met on the street a run, only boys dressed in rags. This spoke to him: "I would like to stay in one of your houses."
"But I do not know you at all. Who are you? Do you have anyone who could recommend you the "" Please, sir, "he pleaded with the boy, pointing to his rags;? I thought that they could recommend me." Moves Bernardo took the boy's hand and took him immediately to his orphanage.
This story answers the question: Who can enter God's holy presence and his heavenly home? Only he who sees all the misery of his life to God and to her grace calls. So only the one to the conclusion has come: I'm lost, I am guilty, my life my problems are outgrown. I see no way out.

" Then he will receive us for Jesus' sake, clothe us with the garments of salvation, and lead to his house so that we are forever in his home.
When Jesus heard it, he said to them: "Not the strong need a doctor but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners. " Mark 2.17
