It enlightens one's day to receive one's friend e-mail (or call, visit, etc), particularly from someone gone long ago. I just realized how wrong I was in the assesment of this particular friend of mine who wrote me yesterday.
That makes me realize that sometimes I expect a lot of my friends, sometimes I don't.
God, give me some consistency! There had been cases where I really needed to think twice before saying something but though the pain came through, then I learnt a lot and now I am glad how events unfold and turn out to be true blessings when they had seemed not to be. Lord, forgive me if I caused pain and sorrow in others and on myself through my unbelief!
One final word: take courage for in due time you will reap what you sow! Let's bear fruit to the hundreds and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God!
