Romanian Friend

Tonight after choir practice we decided to head to Easley for a Sonic moment :) its been a crazy week and nothing makes you feel better after a rough week like ice cream right ?

While were there we met a guy who was from Romania. I recognized what sounded like a Bulgarian accent. After asking him where he was from he began to share his testimony of how he escaped from Romania and came to America for a better life. He was sharing about his life, the struggles and a lot of what he had experienced while in Romania. It absolutely broke my heart. At that very moment I realized that despite all he trivial crazy mess we deal with everyday we are so amazingly blessed to live in America. We don't know the struggle that many face daily just to survive. Let alone to serve Jesus. Its unbelievable.

Tonight as I lay my head on my Pillow I realize how precious our faith is, how powerful the Word is and that God has been so good to us. And I'm thankful.
