“Hope In The Dark” - Jena Lee:
Quote from “Hope In The Dark” by Jena Lee. Someone Jena met on her travels in Africa:
“We know that Americans pity Africans,” he told me. “But sometimes I think Africans pity Americans.
“How so?” I asked him.
“Americans seem to expect that everything will be provided for them. For us,” he said, “this ear of corn is a gift from God. This evening’s rain is a shower of mercy upon us. This healthy breath is life-giving. And maybe tomorrow we will not have such things, but our hearts are so full of God’s provision.”
