63.

Today I met a friend for lunch who was in

Dallas from out of town.

We hadn't seen each other in almost 2 years,

so we spent several hours catching each other

up on the highlights (and some of the

not so highlights) of the past few years.

I love friendships that last for years

even when you don't see each other very often

and you mostly keep up with each other

through FB and blogs, and then when you do get

to see each other there's no

awkwardness or re-orienting yourself to the friendship.

I'm just so grateful for relationships.

Especially the ones that cause me to want Jesus more,

and that encourage me in the fight for righteousness.

I'm grateful for you Daphne Davies. :)
