Psalm 63, 8-9, "Who raised up the poor out of the dust, and lift up the needy out of the dunghill, that he may set him with princes". I was walking near the ocean in Santa Barbara when I saw a man on the railroad tracks as he is depicted in this painting. I began to look for police to help, and when I looked back the man was gone.
