These past 10 months something beautiful has happen. To be honest, many beautiful things have happened, but in particular, Q squad has become a real family. True brothers and sisters.
I was reflecting the other day on how wonderful these 50+ other people are and how I could do life with them for many years to come. But that is not the case. In a few weeks this will all be over. My strong, spirit led, supportive family will be breaking up and filtering out all over America. But the cool thing is there are 50+ on fire, community loving, transformed people who will be bringing this calling back to their home. Myself being one of those!
But now back to community. While I was thanking God for this opportunity and family, He kept giving me words for what this community has worked to become. And I made it into a short poem.. So cool, huh? I’ll stop rambling now… Enjoy!
