Imagine every morning
you wake up and don’t know where your food for that day is coming from.
Your home is made of
cardboard.
There are no such
things as running water.
You are considered blessed
to be wearing an old pair of holey shoes.
You live in the dump of Nicaragua.
Your living comes from
sifting through the trash collecting things that can be recycled.
It’s a 100 degrees,
and there has been a drought and no rain for six months.
You have left your family,
to provide for them.
The smell of burning
trash is the constant that lingers in the air.
What if this was your life…..
“He raises the poor from the dust and
lifts the needy from the ash heap; he seats them with princes, and has them
inherit the throne of honor.” 1 Samuel 2:7-8
