A friend sent me the following quote from the Catholic mystic Thomas Merton. It has never seemed more pertinent to the times and our ongoing struggles:

"In this world, this demented inn, in which there is absolutely no room for Him at all, Christ has come uninvited. But because He cannot be at home in it, because He is out of place in it, His place is with those others for whom there is no room. His place is with those who do not belong, who are rejected by power because they are regarded as weak, those who are discredited, who are denied the status of persons, who are tortured, bombed, and exterminated. With those for whom there is no room, Christ is present in the world. He is mysteriously present in those for whom there seems to be nothing but the world at its worst. . . It is in these that He hides Himself, for whom there is no room."

— Thomas Merton
