It was 7:15 a.m. when my door bell rang. Startled, I wondered who would be there so early. The only person I could think of was perhaps my daughter since it was my birthday and I would be gone for the day. As I opened the door, the surprise was overwhelming; my new, dear friend. She drove approximately 25 miles each way just to wish me a happy birthday. She said she knew I had no one with me to wish me a happy day and to let me know I was loved and cared for. I have been in this new town barely 4 months, but God truly brought me a gift when he brought me this friend. Her actions spoke volumes to me; words of love and kindness. Sometimes God uses “earthly” persons to remind us of Hebrews 13:5 NKJ, “…I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
