everyone should have a friend (or two or three) that they know, without a doubt, was placed in their life by God. i mean, a friendship that would have no reason to exist outside of the workings of the Lord. that's what i'm talking about. those kinds of friendships..... wow.
this semester, i have been totally blessed by a new friendship. Hannah.
what a joy this girl is. we've been friends for exactly one month. it feels like i've known her my whole life. sometimes, the Lord reveals himself to me through people. sometimes he uses friendships to say, "yeah, i'm here. i hear you. i'll send you someone else who gets it." this is rare. but Hannah is one of those people. someone who gets it.
last night, she sent me this: "Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one.'" - C.S. Lewis. he got it. coming from a man as wise as C.S. Lewis... i know that this is something that couldn't come from this world.
i hope you have people in your life who get it. people who, when you are with them, you can't help but thank God for their lives. my life is truly different because of these people in my life and i am glad the Lord chooses to work in this way.
