transformation


“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect.”  Romans 12:2

in the call,
‘come join us!’
to the immigrant child
who just moved
into the neighborhood;
in the fast food worker
who patiently listens
to the person with
difficulty speaking
give their order;
in the folks
who wander crowded
parking lots to make sure
no pets or kids
have been left in cars
in oppressive heat,
we are transformed
by the goodness
of those who know
your heart
