Just in case you were wondering...

I LOVE how certain individuals in my life have the ability to remove a week's worth of stress and anxiety in a matter of hours. I LOVE how PURE LOVE is determined to show up and engage regardless of how tired or weak it feels. I LOVE how a simple hug or smile from a TREASURED friend instantly puts into perspective petty problems and unimportant issues and restores the BEAUTY and JOY of life. I LOVE how two hours of connection between friends has the power to restore, empower, and ignite the light inside me.

And, just in case anyone was wondering, those are all facts of evidence of GOD's presence within people. Those things display GOD's love and grace, and the magnitude of HIS glory.

To the CHERISHED friends I hold: THANK YOU for your impact on my life. THANK YOU for the text messages, phone calls, Facebook wall posts, and e-mails following up on coffee dates. THANK YOU for the accountability of boundaries and commitments. THANK YOU for the encouragment and support to live as GOD calls me to live in contradiciton to this world. THANK YOU for the examples you set for me and the inspiration you create. THANK YOU for reflecting GOD onto my life and teaching me how to bounce HIS holiness onto others. THANK YOU for being GOD's hands and feet along the road in my life.
