Friends. We all have them. But sometimes we do not realize just how many we have or how far they are wiling to go for us until we get into some kind of fix, and they come to our rescue.
This past week, I got myself into such a fix. Sure enough, friends from afar went above and beyond to take care of the situation for me. And I sat there and thought, I am so blessed.
The situation made me think about my forgotten gifts. Such as friends. Especially friends that I do not see on a regular basis, but who are there for me none-the-less.
I think God is a forgotten gift. Like my friends, God is there for me regardless of my awareness. But often, it takes a need, a pain, or a struggle before I stop to think of the Divine Being. And unlike some of my friends, God is not far away.
It is good to remember: God is closer to me than I am to myself. It is up to me to remember...
