Captured at a busy lunch counter, this couple shares a quiet moment. The man, his hand on his forehead, feels heavy and distressed. The woman does not speak but leans on his shoulder, showing compassion for the sorrow he—and perhaps she—feels. Discipleship is evidenced in such moments when Christ’s followers are available to mourn with those that mourn.
“Women have a natural power of compassion to lift up the hands that hang down. In this tender moment of need, she was there to lean in.”
