Key moments
- Can I sit next to you? It's hard to be hungry and destitute.
- There is nothing one can do but there's something in the midst of this hopelessness when the Lord becomes your only hope. It's then that one can feel his presence.
- I have been blessed lately to participate in your suffering, my brother.
- They are different than they are. They don't seem to care about me. They don't seem to care about me either.
- But the good news is God loves us. Don't ever forget that.
- Please take this, I have another pair at home.
