I ran as fast as I could - sand kicking up behind me
My shoes and all other cares in the world were left in the dust.
Consumed.
-
As the sky turned different shades of bright orange, yellow, pink,
I was waist deep in the water wondering how on earth something so beautiful could also be so,
Destructive.
-
As I shook the hard worked hands of my brothers and sisters I couldn't help but question when was
the last time someone smiled at them, let alone sat and prayed with them.
Broken.
-
I bawled more tears for the earthly fathers, than I ever have before that day.
I also learned that this is something I will be called to forever, even in the dry seasons.
Passion.

It's very easy to overlook the margins in the city.
This is the part of urban ministry people don't tell you about.
Find the margins, hold tight, and remember why you came here.
