it’s almost amazing how people run from me how people turn from me and on me a few people have seen me for a little bit like on here some of you specifically Mark he gave me money couple times others of you too. I don’t want money but like I have the best nonprofit that I need help with and it’s a pretty great investment I think.

Verse — Psalm 34:18
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

Interpretation:
This verse isn’t about weakness — it’s about wounds. God draws near not to the loud, the proud, or the untouched, but to those whose spirits are worn down by pain, grief, and compassion for suffering they can’t ignore.

My Voice / What This Is for Me:
My body has been hurt, and my soul feels exhausted from seeing so much pain in the world.
What hurts the most isn’t just what’s been done to me — it’s how casually people hurt each other, often without even realizing it.

But caring still costs something.
And when you feel everything — when you can’t shut it off — it can feel like your spirit is being crushed by the weight of it all.

It means I’m still human.

Verse — Micah 6:8:
“He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?”

Verse (Jesus) — Matthew 5:7:
“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.”

Interpretation:
Jesus points to mercy — not cruelty — as a defining mark of people who follow God. True compassion doesn’t come from tribalism, fear, or power games. It comes from seeing the humanity in people others overlook.

My Voice / What I’m Saying:
What happened in Minneapolis — a woman was shot and killed during an immigration enforcement action by a federal agent — is a tragedy that has stirred pain across the country. That pain is real, and loss of human life shouldn’t be something we justify lightly.
I believe in the rule of law and in secure borders. I also believe in being humane. Illegal immigration is a policy problem that needs solutions — not violence, not chaos, not abandonment.
The fact that we’ve struggled for decades with broken immigration systems — where millions are left in legal limbo and enforcement happens in ways that sometimes cost lives — shows we’re ...
