Tuesday, October 29, 2002 It's a Small World I ran into a friend on Friday that I hadn't really talked to since we started college--he used to go to my church and high school. It's funny: he studies at Albion and was visiting Ann Arbor because some kids from his summer project were having a reunion... and they all were at a Halloween party hosted by Phi Alpha Kappa (the Christian frat/ Dutch House/ PAK House). We had a great conversation about how we'd changed since high school and what we'd learned; he said that he's totally different from the person he used to be, and the person he was back then disgusts him now. At Thurston, he was a Christian in name but wasn't living the life, and he struggled with a lot of things. The crazy part about this was that I used to pray for him, pray that God would become real in his life and that God would change him (and this on a fairly consistent basis), partly because I could see that we were similar in a lot of ways. It worked! He even gave me encouragment about issues I'm facing right now, allowing knowledge about God to infiltrate my heart and not just my head, experiencing God rather than just knowing lots of facts about him. Wow. It's so amazing to have proof that God does answer prayer, even when he doesn't seem to be doing anything at the time. ^ Top | 5:17 PM | | |
