3. God Overslept on the Seventh
Narrator: Tamir Martin Sr.

I’ve avoided this stretch of road for weeks. My son is resting as we speak. He was stolen from me, and now I grieve. The flowers adorn the place he bled. The concrete still stained a violent red. I cannot push it from my head. Blame fear. Blame politics. Tell me h is killer’s brain was sick. But the truth is it’s always been this way. Please hear my desperate plea. I want my son back here with me. You’ve done it before… 1 Kings 17:17-24. As life continues to make its way, my son still buried to this day… perhaps because I lost my faith? I’m studying these stories. The words surround me completely. But nothing will do if You won’t give me what I need. I’m crying, please… Nothing will do, not even You, if You won’t give my son to me.
