“I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?”
-Matthew 6:25-26
I am fed handsomely by an amazing circle men and women that God has brought into my life.
After a game in the local Spanish league, our coach’s wife served fresh ceviche on crispy tortillas. An absolutely amazing meal on a polystyrene plate in the unlikely setting of a warehouse converted into an indoor soccer facility.
I am deeply grateful to be welcomed into this culture. I hardly speak enough Spanish to be useful on the field, but they keep inviting me to mutliple teams each season. I stumble along to understand my role and their kindness toward me seems without end.
Every day I feel the love of friends. I am fed as much by that love as I am by their generosity.
