When you look into his eyes these days,
You’ll see someone carrying the burdens of many.
Desperate phone calls from those whose future is uncertain,
Pleas to know what will happen as they face the unknown.
A reputation for always doing the right thing,
He aims to treat everyone with respect.
Only now the answers are not forthcoming,
This time, the decisions are not his to make.
For now, sleepless nights are his lot,
Dark circles bear witness, as does the pain in his eyes.
Most desperate to take care of his people,
None will ever fully know his efforts on their behalf.
He cries out to God for wisdom and strength,
As he carries the weight of his world on his shoulders.
For you...I thank you for everything you've done. I am most grateful and humbled...even though it doesn't always come through in what I say and do.
