Here it sit.
In the middle of a messy dorm room with grace on one side and peace on the other. And I've been writing those words over and over and over again on cards to encourage someone. But the more I write the more tired I become. I am feeling so far from them.
How do you deal with heartbreak from 2000 miles away? I spoke with a very brave friend on Saturday but it tore me apart. Much more than I was anticipating. And the semester is busy. Much more than I was anticipating. And I'm dealing with these things SO much more than I was anticipating. Much stronger, for sure.
Chicago is in the low teens tonight and the cold air makes you cough just to inhale. The city has been quiet for a little while, but there's a fair chance that it might just be that I stopped paying attention.
I started re-reading the book 'Night' last night on the subway on the way to InnerCityImpact.
There is so much pain, Jesus. There is so much anger. There are so many questions. And we are so far from Peace.
God, bring us to that place. God give us rest. Give us peace. I love you.
