If I'm interpreting some of your work rightly, it seems like you are working to bring those two worlds together. May the Lord grant you success Lynette! I really appreciate your heart in that.

Yes. This particular poem just sort of poured out of me after learning about a foster teen girl in crisis. She bounces from home to home, sometimes being horrifically abused. I don’t know her personally, but my 16 year old nephew does. My heart breaks for this lost girl, who doesn’t really have anyone in her life to love her. I yearn for us to see these lost ones, and find ways to love them.

That is truly heartbreaking. May we be sensitive to the Spirit's leading in whatever we can do to help!
