Frustration
is what occurs
when you think you will get
a symphony sound
blowing hard
through a hollow reed.
In my last post
the one about
Our Ministry
I suggested people pray for us because, as I wrote,
This is a hard work.”
One or two have suggested
what we do is not hard work.
They are right.
We seldom lift anything heavy
or spend ten hours in the Texas sun
on a tar roof.
If that is the only hard work
we really don’t do it much.
So, how is this hard?
When we get a person whose recovery
mean more to us than it does to him/her
the work gets hard.
When someone who will not ever get close to our work
tells us what we ought to do with “those people.”
The work gets hard
When someone with all the potential in the world
and all the talent they need
just will not work their program to reentry
and tells us one more version of the same old story,
the work gets hard.
So, if you never decide to help us any other way
decide to pray.
Your prayers will help both of us.
