A wonderfully random thing happened to me the other day. I was driving home from work, to get ready to see "V for Vendetta". At the time, I was unaware that my roommate Mark gave his friend, Wendy, my cell number (He has no phone of his own. I am usually his contact person). And Wendy was on her way to our house to see Mark. Her Jeep overheated. She was pretty much stranded in downtown Atlanta. So, I get a phone call. It's Wendy. She asked me if I could help, I saw no problem with helping, so I found my way to her.

Upon meeting her I was amazed at how beautiful Wendy is. She got in my car, introduced herself, as did I, shook my hand and thanked me for the help. While we drove I had the fortunate chance of getting to know Wendy a little.

It turns out she is a Christian. And totally on fire for God. Also, I learn that she is working for an organization that disciples young adults. I shared with her how Mark and I knew each other through Mission Year. We talked about our walks with God, serving him, being available to his call, and I got to share about an opportunity to volunteer in New Orleans through Mission Year. I shared about the decisions I have to make soon and the struggle to make the right choice. She shared some scriptures and mentioned Abraham. The way she spoke was refreshing to hear. I could tell she has so much wisdom, insight, and knowledge about God. I was encouraged, challenged, and even convicted in the twenty minutes I got to spend with Wendy. What an awesome person!

Maybe I'll meet her again some day.
