You meet many people same time same place when dog walking. Most mornings I see a student on her way to school. I don’t know her name, I have never spoken to her, but for some reason every morning when I see her I prayer for her. She never makes eye contact, is always looking at the pavement, is always alone and always seems uncomfortable within her own skin.
I’m praying for her to come to know Father God. When I see her it reminds me of our Father’s love for me. I was an awkward angry teenager, bent low with a load of hang-ups when God revealed His love for me. I was never deserving of this, but God’s nature is pure love and kindness. His compassion melted my hardness and hurt.
Altho’ I know nothing of this young lady she seems to represent to me so many in our world who are unaware of God’s love. I doubt I’ll ever speak to her, it just isn’t appropriate to do so, even if I had the opportunity, but my prayer is that God would reveal himself to more and more people like her.
Who are you watching and praying for?
