Trying to wrap my head around this news right now.”

“He was engaged in fighting oppressive politics and policy. He was moving the needle. He was passionate about the quality of life for ALL people and his politics stemmed from this. There are some deaths that will have you looking up to God with the “side-eye”! THIS is definitely one. Thankfully I understand that God is not intimidated with our “side-eye”! So, somehow in faith I trust God, even when I do not understand God”.
