Cause and Effect

It's incredible how we can impact some one's life without meaning to, and many times without know it.

Earlier today I was catching up with Kenny who was visiting State College today, and a girl from my high school sees us and comes over to say hello and talk for a little. I hadn't talked to let alone seen her in two years and our relationship "ended" on not the best of terms, and yet she wanted to come over and talk and said she wanted to catch up.

Now it's not like I barely knew her or anything. In high school she was one my best female friends. We went through some rough times and she really helped me out through a lot of things, but something happened between us that made her, despite our separation want to hang out again. Something impacted her enough and was meaningful enough to where she valued that beyond our arguments and unfortunate "end" to our friendship.

If you read my first blog I kind of wrote about a similar thing with a friend of mines baby Hannah Gloria. She is still always present in my mind, and I am happy to say that
Scott and Anna, Hannah's parents, have had another baby. A year and a day after Hannah's death. I've never even met either of them yet they have had a tremendous impact on my life.

God is so awesome that he can work in us and through us without us even knowing. That's pretty sweet.

Because of his grace and for his glory.
