Pain

The problem of pain sits in shadows. Valleys. Sometimes hidden.

Walking by faith, we navigate broken streets. And journey with hurting people.

Face to face with a biblical reality.

“For we know that the whole creation groans…” (Romans 8:22 NASB).

Night sky

Night sky. Stars lost in the city’s loud light.

Raised in a large urban center, I look back on my childhood. And remember something different.

Limited electricity. Unpredictable outages. 

Frequent darkness in the evenings.  

And stars.
