I was doing some studying in my room on my desk today, when suddenly I couldn’t stop coughing and I also started to find it hard to breath. I was pretty sure that it was allergies that were causing it, so ya, I decided to clean my room today. And ya, I guess it was that messy and dusty. Let’s just say that I can breath again.
So as I was cleaning my room today, I was moving a pile of papers that I had on my floor and I accidently came across a little picture that I forgot I still had and kept. Seeing it there, sadly on the floor
, brought back a rush of memories. Good memories though, and it made me think. So many things never happen the way I want them to, and I remember feeling in that moment in time very
, and maybe a little upset and frustrated
. But now I feel very thankful, and privileged, to have known that person for the short time that I did. (yup, it was a picture of somebody I knew)
This picture that I found was a droplet of grace, and I know that it was God’s purpose to show it to me today. Perfect timing. Friendships may not be working out the way that I would like them to, I’ll emphasis the plural, and I know that the ones that I do have now may not work out as well in the future either. But I have this little collection of pictures, of people. And I intend to keep them with me for the rest of my life, at least for sure hidden away somewhere. My reason for keeping them isn’t so much just so that they’ll cheer me up when I’m feeling blue, but also so they’ll remind me that for each and every one of these people who blessed me so much, I will get to spend eternity with them, and our saviour. Amen!
