Finding Ourselves

Perhaps
If we find ourselves coming alongside the suffering,
it is because the Spirit,
whose name is Called-Beside,
has led us there.
Perhaps…
if we find ourselves listening to their pain
it is because God,
Whose name is Favors-Us
listens through our ears.
Perhaps…
If we find ourselves speaking hope or offering help,
it is because Jesus,
whose name is Making-Whole,
heals them through our presence.

Dedication & Appreciation

This site is dedicated to the memory of Dustin Hebert who registered as an organ donor after his grandfather received the gift of someone’s heart. Dustin passed away on April 12, 2019 at the age of 34. His heart now beats in my chest. I express my deep affection for him and appreciation to him and to his family whose consent and participation facilitated the giving of his great gift.
