Today (or yesterday since it’s technically the 21st) was a weird day for me. It was beautiful outside. I would’ve loved to have spent the day in the garden, but its pointless this time of year. I was in a bad mood most of the day… but I’ll keep that part to myself. It’s hard to explain why today was so weird. It just was.
Found out that the guy finished school early by getting his GED.
I gave my 1st red velvet cake (Sis. Hughes’ recipe) to Matt Ames. It was too tempting and too yummy for me to resist. I hope they enjoy it.
I’ve had a certain friend on my heart for several years now. I have been praying for this person probably more than anyone else in the past few years. Through these past few years I haven’t felt like I could approach this person about my burden for them, but I knew that God would open the door when the time was right. That happened tonight. My friend IMed me asking for prayer. This friend is going through a great deal spiritually, I’m not sure I was any help. I said all that I knew to say. I even went against my better judgement and I was pretty straightforward. Usually when I see a person is down, I try to just be nice. But my friend needed more than nice. My friend needed the honest to God truth. It didn’t go over like I hoped, but it went over. It had to be said… like it or not. Sometimes we need someone to tell us what we NEED to hear… not what we want to hear. Especially those of us who are strong-willed and hard-headed. If the tables were turned, I’d want someone to tell me straight-up. No beating around the bush. I love this person so much. I know God has a plan for my friend… if He didn’t, He wouldn’t have placed such a strong ongoing burden on my heart for her. There’s something about sacrifice and desperation that really gets God’s attention. Made me think about my own spiritual health…
I’ve missed Caleb a whole lot today. Fought back tears all day. Just one of those days.
I better get to bed. Church in the morning. I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday in God’s house. Goodnight.
