Jesus identifies himself with those in need, with the hungry, the thirsty, the stranger, the naked, the sick and those in prison. "As you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me" (Matthew 25:40). Love of God and love of neighbour have become one: In the least of the brethren we find Jesus himself, and in Jesus we find God."
Benedict XVI in "Deus Caritas Est"
