“לא יחסר לי”

think of often and try to live life by since want is not a thing to be eliminated.

once i met three joe’s in a day and i’ve never told anyone cause it doesn’t sound believable even to me.

the first was at a gas station and he approached to invite me to a church in the area (in case i was looking). he gave me his business card and explained that he worked at a different church so i’d probably never see him again yet he’d left me his contact info just in case i needed… something.

the second was a pastor introduced to me by an acquaintance. i was introduced for work purposes but maybe spiritual too.

the third was a delivery driver that graciously put a pause on his route to teach me a little about wiring when he saw me struggling with an electrical task i wasn’t qualified to execute.

there is a fourth i already know. a son. he said he was my father when first he learned how to speak. i never forgot his words even though through layers of worldliness he has.

on that day i’d woken up with a heaviness that accompanied want of a father but was reminded from dawn to sunset i’ve always had one.
