Okay, so if you're wondering what I'm talking about, I am talking about my two new [amazing] friends.
I met them through BLOGGER!
You remember my recent trip to California? Well, at the time (in April) my new blogging friend, Emily emailed me before I left & suggested we meet in CA. This of course was so exciting for me because I do not have Christian friends here.
Anyway, God tested me in CA. I really thought it was His will for us to meet. During the times I prayed about it, I heard Him say, "Can you trust Me?" It was actually this post I wrote about during that trip that I wrote a quote from a book. It actually was to encourage you, but to sorta be a secret thing I was trusting God for.
When I was on the train traveling back home & no memories of Emily & her sister Hannah to accompany me, I figured I really hadn't heard from God.
Well! Let me tell you that my God is good!
A few days ago, I got an email saying they were coming down here for like a day & wanted to know if we could meet on Tuesday. I literally screamed & screamed because man, God is good! He knew the WHOLE time! Haha, I kept saying to Him, "Eeeee! You knew? And You had me wait how long?!" But it's all good now because He established a forever kind of friendship with these two gals & I.
We met at the Starbucks near my house & I couldn't find them outside. I basically saw only their mom first (which I guess was her for a specific) , & she told me the girls were in the shop. So when I saw them, I was so excited! I loved talking to them in person, & it's a wonder that all this happened from a blog!
I'm SO glad that God has a way of working these things out. I have a new level of trust & patience. Two things that weren't always my awesome qualities.
I loved meeting all of them & it was a great treat! (These gals are good at giving treats. (You guys know what I'm talking about!!!) )
My camera is in the hospital, so their little brother took all the pictures of us with their camera. So, stay tuned because awesome pictures are coming soon!
