Looking at unexpected snapshots of myself, I did not recognize the person looking back. After years of caregiving, loss, and feeling like an orphan on earth, the face in the photos simultaneously said “this is who you are now” and “who are you now?” This is the quiet, tear filled space of delayed grief and spiritual becoming, where the outer form no longer matches the inner knowing, yet I remain a child of God, fully known even when I do not yet fully know myself.

Verse and Vision | May 12, 2026
Verse and Vision is a daily series exploring the verse of the day — not just what it says, but what it means. Each post unpacks the biblical context, digs into the original language, and traces the historical and philosophical world behind the text. Where the Word echoes across history, we follow it. Where it lands in the present, we don’t look away.
