In my own attempts to help a city that I love heal from its own wounds of social injustice, inequality, classism, poverty and hopelessness, I had to heal from my own brokenness, implicit bias and ignorances.. I have realized we need fighters not just volunteers.
“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”
~ Jeremiah 17-8
