Perfect Strangers


In the moments when we feel so low about ourselves, to the point of death, someone walks in and....Saves us. They say things that are exactly what we need to hear. Sometimes these things are exactly what we never felt anyone would understand. Hellen Keller once said " I would much rather walk with someone in the dark, rather than walk alone in the light." Find the person who will stick around through all of your trials and sufferings, your darkest moments. Find someone who truly understands how you are feeling and says things that mean so much to you. Even if it is something small like "I love you". Sometimes knowing you are loved is truly just enough.

You are not the only one who hears youself crying. God hears you crying. So when you think for a second "I dont want anyone to see me cry." well guess what....Someone is seeing you cry. God is there and he is hearing your plea for an answer, for sanctuary, for something to hold your head above water.

Here's a thought; lets think about this for a second. Ever wonder why we have soul-mates? or Best friends? Well, here's my thought on it. We all want to be 100%, to feel we have control over everything that we are happy on our own terms. Well, sorry, can't happen on your own. We may be able to get to feeling 50% but never 100%. Reason is this, God brings these people into our lives to help us feel better about ourselves, to improve our flaws. He brings strangers into our lives to.....complete us. We all live in a world where are happiest moment is when we feel completed. But you cannot do it on your own.

So today, walk past your fears and ask that girl to go out for some drinks, get to know her cuz she might be everything you're looking for. Hang out with that guy in class who was always so nice to you, he might be the best friend you always needed. We cannot find happiness alone.
