Fellowship

Fellowship with godly friends is truly a blessing.  Last night, I met with my friend at a nice Cuban restaurant (Felix Continental Cuisine) in Old Towne Orange.  We were able to share about what God has done in our lives and what He has been teaching us, to laugh together, and to encourage one another.  It is affirming when we are able to understand what the other is going through, when we share agreement in perspective, and when we find that the other person is "in the same boat" or "in our camp".  What I appreciate most about this friend, is her sincere love for God, her intelligence, and her kindred spirit.  She also gave me a basket that she brought back from Kenya - gifts from foreign countries are some of my most valued and precious possessions, for they remind me to broaden my perspective to include the rest of the world, since it is too easy to be focused on just my immediate surroundings.
