This woman, this day, this statement...





"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the Hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect."  - Peter


This woman... 

This day...

This statement by Peter...

 All would call me to a new place in my walk of faith. 
Peter, a disciple of Jesus had penned these words so many years ago and I couldn't get him, her or this day out of my head for weeks that turned into months, years. 

This woman walked up to me and handed me her baby. 

 Hope.

 Give a reason. 

Wait, what hope did I have.
Did I have Hope?

This. 

 This image, my camera captured, was her life after the earth shook for all those seconds.

And so, as Haiti worked to heal, I too, was left in a crisis of faith of my own. 
Hope.

Give a reason.
I felt like I had no answer.

 Jesus.

 Let us start there.
