Friendship can come from all different avenues. I will forever be grateful for one friend who introduced me to a new friend. A friend who has helped me in so many ways, even though we live five hours apart and have only met each other once, and briefly at that. She has shared with me some very touching experiences she has had in her life. Experiences that shed a whole new light on the struggles I have been going through. She has listened to me and then given me advice to help me through. She is one amazing woman and I'm so grateful for her influence in my life. I'm so amazed at all she is able to accomplish and still have room to talk to me. I can't wait to get to know her a little better.
As I've thought more about the people who have stepped into my life recently and helped me so much, I've realized how truly blessed I am. The friendships I'm building are priceless. It's amazing to see how trials and service can bring us closer to each other.
So here is my challenge to you, next time you are given an opportunity to serve, even a friend of a friend, don't hesitate. You never know what friendships may come of your service.
