Acts 20

May I be the leader
who builds retaining walls,
who girdles Jesus' people
when their strength is flagging,
even while I travel.

May I be the leader
who loves so deeply
that midnight is too early
for friends to leave the words
that bring peace.

May I be the leader
who recounts a God
so strong,
so infatuated with us,
that suffering shrinks in comparison.
