A phone call

For those of you that really know me know that I am not the best person to talk on the phone with. I actually detest speaking on the phone. Tonight, I spent about two hours on the phone with two people that I don't know if I've ever spoken on the phone with one of them. The other I had never spoken on the phone with.

These two conversations were two of the best conversations I've had in awhile. The first was with my cousin whom we conversed about my family and then we talked about something that I had been struggling to deal with. It's hard to share with certain people in your family and you just have to find that common ground between you two. I've been focusing on so many other things, that I didn't think about the things that we have in common. That was something that I've needed to hear for awhile. We can't hang out on the things I just want to do.

Second conversation was very emotional for me. Last summer in 2010 there was a friend that I shared my faith in Christ with. So did a few other members of my team. Well, a lady had a been trying to get a hold of me who met with that person. I was a little wary with the country we went to being closed. Well the good news was that my friend had accepted the Father into her life. It's the best piece of news you can hear and another door may have been opened for me to go back. I just keep praying, because when you receive bad news it's always going to be outweighed by good news. You always have one thing that separates you from everyone else. The love of our Savior. I'm excited that I'm going to see my friend after I die and I hope to see more, including those I'm currently afraid to talk about Jesus with.

Until next time...
