What a friend …

This morning I called up a woman in my church that I really don’t know very well–but I’ve always wanted to get to know more.

(She has ministered grace to our Body in such humble, sweet, intelligent ways … well … she just seemed like the kind of person everyone would always want to spend time with.)

It was … funny / strange / a little embarrassing to call her, though … “Ummm, Hi! How are you? Hey–would you ever consider visiting with me for awhile? I’d like to seek your counsel and wisdom on some heart issues and I was wondering if we could visit and maybe, you know, talk about Jesus and laying hold of the gospel in real life, etc. etc.”

But I did it. And I’m SO glad.

We just finished an hour call and I have so many notes that I want to read and re-read and pray over and talk about with Fred.

Wow! Is she wise!
And humble. Loving. Honest. Insightful.

And boy! Am I a blessed woman.

Thank You, God, for this dear sister in Christ.
For the Body.
For your Holy Spirit.
For YOU.

I love You, Lord–

Your grateful sheep,
Tara B.
