Today it was just me and Bridget for laundry day. Which was a lot of fun and a little tiring. We did photo shoots, a trip to the bank for change and a lollipop, and rides. She was very helpful and cute the whole time. Part way through a man came and gave me some money. He said that Jesus loved me, was aware of me, and had a plan for me. I wish I had thought of something other than thank you. I so grateful he was there and that he had the courage to say that to a stranger he had never met. The thing that really got me though was last night I was telling Sean that everyone calls me ma'm now and I hate it and really wish people just stuck with Miss. This man...he called me miss. It's been at least 6 years since someone has. It's the little things that help you know that God really is aware of you. I hope I can help someone in this way soon.
I was singing a little tune for my friend Lucy. I wanted to honor her positivity when rembering her. Mine was simple.
Thanks for the joy you bring, it makes my heart want sing, thank you for everything.
This Sunday I found a hymn that really embodies how I feel about Lucy and many other friends. It's called Each Life That Touches Ours For Good.
What greater gift dost thou bestow,
What greater goodness can we know
Than Christlike friends, whose gentle ways
Strengthen our faith, enrich our days.
