A friend

I have this interesting friend at work. She's visited Adullam once, even enjoyed it; but essentially feels she's not there yet. OK, fair enough. What's ironic though, is any time there's crap stressing her out at work or home, she asks for prayer. Like one night, I saw on the callerID that she had called and when I returned her call, she told me she had a horrible headache and needed me to pray with her. Today, she had to go to the doctor and have some in clinic procedure done and she was tripping out. She wanted me to pray with her, walk w/ her to the doc's office, and hang in the WR till she went in.

Such a trip. I'm totally unabashedly bold with her about Jesus and yet she's totally living in a way that some may call "sinful;" and yet, she still comes for prayer.

When I look back at what I was like in my personal "pre-Christ" days, I am baffled too. I can't figure out how I could have said and writen some of the things I did, how I could have talked to and petitioned God so much, or how I could have stood in defence of God and his Stuff so avidly. Why??? I did NOT "get it. I was NOT "there", yet I still had amazing moments.

God does what he does and moves when He moves. It's a mistery to us because only He knows each of us perfectly.

I love the divercity of the journeys we encounter in our relationships with people. Isn't it wonderful? =)
