i'm always amazed at how God networks. haha He has this strange way of bringing people together that they may sharpen and build one another up as they walk thru similar situations. i mean how often do u find pple in the same phase of life a yourself such that u can laugh at each other (or sometimes laugh to yourself at yourself as you perfectly identify with what the person just said), answer each others' questions, know and can really empathize with how to much agony/confusion/frustration the person faces and be able to uphold him/her in prayer thereafter?so i'm real thankful for people going thru the same season of life as i am. God sure knows we all need companions as "directional signs" along the way :)and i think this quote neatly explains what i'm learning at this point. it's week 1 of school and already i know its gonna be one crazy sem and there's no way i can do it on my own.
Perhaps one reason God delays His answers to our prayers is because He knows we
need to be with Him far more than we need the things we ask of Him.
