Vagabond

It all started when I moved to the West Coast And lived on a San Francisco Street called Post. An experience on Post Street forever changed my life. Until then, I did not realize that my heart was lost. Nevertheless, I found my heart in the soul of a vagabond. I was a believer, but too blind and busy 'to show deep love'. That gentle man taught me things I thought I already knew. My 'people love' was far more shallower than I realized. Before him, I never knew my heart contained so much stone. Reuben, the vagabond, challenged me to go above and beyond; His heart was lost, but so was mine in a different kind of way. He was alone, homeless, and hungry when God sent him my way. Moreover, God knew that each of us had what the other needed. Encountering him forced me to do things never dreamed of before; To pause and put 'Love in action' in ways I'd never done before.
