Worlds Apart
Bony arms and love starved eyes;
Gaping wounds and blood soaked clothes--
Sights no eye should see
No eye has seen...
Ragged breaths of a dying child,
A mother's wails for her unmoving son--
Sounds no ear should hear
No ear has heard...
Why doesn't my father want me?
I wish that death would come--
Thoughts no mind should process
No mind has conceived
Radiant faces, streets of gold, life-giving stream,
Ringing laughter, pain-free abundant love
What God has prepared for those who love him.

Dearest Kristin
I love you so much!
And I miss you :)
I love the way that you wove these words together... gripping... but with hope.
Keep writing :)
Leaving for Brazil on Tues!
Very excited! Pray for us.
You are in my prayers too!
