As far as Mondays go, this one was pretty amazing! I love how the God we serve is so awesome and amazing that He will take our biggest mess ups, our biggest failings and failures and turn them around to help others! My B.C. (Before Christ) was a mess... No joke.
Tonight though I got to share the awfulness that I went through with a young lady who has an incredibly bright future. She is destined for greatness in the Kingdom of God. She is struggling with a number of the same issues that I had as a teenager, but most of all she is suffering from loneliness. I think that is what most people that have issues are suffering with. Our world today isolates us so much. We don't talk anymore, we text... I am as guilty of it as the next person! In fact my mom saw a Christmas Ornament when we were out shopping the other day that said "Texting Queen" and she said, "Oh, I should get that for you!" We email instead of write letters... Sorry, I am guilty of that one too! I hate going to the post office! Sometimes I will just live in my own little world for days at a time only coming out for the most necessary things like connecting with my kids.
Anyway, after about an hour and a half of sharing with her and listening to her, God did an amazing thing... He gave her a friend that cares about her and loves her for who she is, where she is. That is a rare thing!
