God Made Me Smile

Posted by on Jul 14, 2010

Good morning. At dinner last night, a friend and I were sharing about how this seems to be a season for troubled friendships. Just as we began engaging deeper in the conversation, I was reminded of something my Pastor said Sunday. She said that God is pruning within the lives of His people removing all of the things and/or people that aren’t producing fruit. Talk about a light bulb moment. Couple that with the fact that a friend who knows my heart and whom I hold dear to my heart writing to me at THAT VERY MOMENT letting me know that she’d be making a trip to Mississippi next week! Talk about excited. You may find my excitement elementary or immature because after all we are grown adults, right? Wrong. See, I was in a serious place of hurt due to the recent ending of a really great friendship, and God addressed that hurt by reminding me that 1. people, themselves, can become a god in our life and we can just as easily make them one by putting them on such high pedestals and He “aint” having that. And 2. not all relationships are meant to be for a lifetime and that I must let go. And lastly…He reminded me of the people He has predestined to be in my life by bringing one of them TO me. I emphasize “TO” because normally when I am in a weary place, I go the distance to be among this friend and others. But nope not this time. God said, “Baby girl, I’m bringing them to you!” Priceless and downright AWESOME!

See you next week, Kathy (KNA)!

Peace and Love – Kimberly
