How do you reconcile all the pain and poverty that rips into the beauty of our world? Our hearts walk on broken glass as we see the tragedies of our fellow brothers and sisters, miles away but close enough to touch us. We have everything while some have nothing. And even that gets taken away(…)

The Sound of Flight

I love to hear the sound of planes flying through the night. I am under a roof, covered in the safety of my blanket, and darkness surrounds. Then I hear, not see, the familiar sound of a thousand winds soaring as one through the infinite night sky. There is something about that sound that resonates in my(…)

Pandemonium

We are one In a black and white world From thorns to crowns We bleed in colour A man’s breath Is God’s breath We desecrate His image When we remain silent Brimming and brewing A broken world bleeds Mercy like rain For every shattered heart We are dwarfed by indifference Shadowed by fear They march(…)

The Pursuit

The Pursuit was a wonderful and new experience in my life. This was my first time attending a ministry training conference. I was in a foreign place, away from loved ones and everything I knew to be home. I’d never been to London, Ontario, and was excited for it. I did not know that a(…)
