December 1988
Chicago
this morning the girls tried on for fun thirty-five thousand dollars in rings one ring laughing at the “movie like” feeling of it all
then, adventure calling rising ninety-four floors above the street to look down upon this city from eleven-hundred feet country kids out for a walk in town
this afternoon it changed from diamond studded pendants to litter ridden streets from the height of man’s achievement to the depths of his despair and we as Christians in shock observed these two extremes
from the world’s top to its basement in short hours shaken by the transit we want to save the world it came and entered our home our safe backyard invaded no longer safe from storm we with our hearts ablaze for God desiring to work His will found for ourselves how close His will can be
After a “Students Serving Students” weekend in Chicago and finding the limits of reality and how close despair exists to our sheltered lives.
