positive post

So my friend tracy has a friend brody who has a blog that i read pretty regularly.  on tuesdays he and others who read his blog do a thing called positive post tuesday, and i thought this week i would jump on the wagon. 

i have great friends….i mean i get that everyone thinks their friends are great, but mine really are!!  i cannot possibly talk about them all today, but know that if you are not mentioned, you are not forgotten.  today, i am going to talk about two of my friends in particular because these are the people that are always honest and constantly show me how to be Christ for other people.

Tracy is a dentist in town who, when i found out i still owed another month of rent on my apartment in mississippi, cooked dinner for me and invited me into her home even though she had enough on her plate with her niece living with her.  i am not sure what i would have done without her this past month, but i am really glad that God placed her in my life.  she pushes me to Christ and pushes me to think like Him and live my life so that others can see Him in me, mostly because that is how she lives her life. 

PD, who founded Jesusgreaterthan.org, and his wife, Suzanne, let me invite myself into their home on multiple occasions when i felt like the world around me might come down.  seriously, i have called him in the middle of the day just to hear someone tell me it really was all going to be okay.  he has a heart to change the world and love people the way that God told us to.  he created an entire organization dedicated to helping those affected by war, poverty and disease and while i might give him a hard time, he is teaching me everyday that actively working to love people is what Christ has called us to do.  

yup….i heart them!!!
