In Ethiopia the streets are unnamed. The lyrics below symbolize what most of us went through...getting out of our comforts zones, out of ourselves and loving others...And as we do this, we gain the right perspective on our lives. "I want to run, I want to hide, I want to tear down the walls, That hold me inside I want to reach out, And touch the flame, Where the streets have no name I want to feel sunlight on my face, I see the dust cloud disappear Without a trace..."
You will always have the poor among you...
John 12:8
This is a little boy I came across is Lalabela who touched my heart. I was constantly reminded that we will always have the poor among us...
Someone asked me today if I'd recovered from Africa. I sat for a moment before replying that I NEVER want to recover from Africa! May Africa always be in my heart and mind.
