You're the ONE


Well, the plan was for the Wonder Woman to stay late at the studio and get things prepared for an awesomely productive day tomorrow and then God stepped in (so, Cap you can't fuss at me for being unproductive - were talkin' God here). As of late, I have been connecting with friends on that addictive forum, Facebook and this time I have fulfilled a desire that has been a long time coming. 

Remember the last post about God placing people in my life, as a child, that really made a difference? Those selfless folks that took the time to point me in the right direction by showing me the Heavenly Father's unending love? You see, I never had a relationship with my father until I became an adult so I had this real deep emptiness as a little girl and God knew just what I needed. Well, there was one individual that really stood out among all the rest.  After years apart, he always was there, in my thoughts and many times I wondered if I would ever have the chance to meet him again. Today, a connection was made.

This man was kind, funny (really funny), dedicated and a light unto the world (my world included). He spent time with me, took me places and was overall like a father to me in his own way. I remember first time motorcycle rides, karate (in his pink ghee - accidentally washed with colored clothes), guitar practice at church with funny faces and loud, goofy singing just to get a laugh out of me. He used to visit me and teach me things and get on my case if I was being a snot (which was often the case).  These are just a few of the many things he took the time to do and I can't thank him enough for what in actuality may have been a short span of time, was a lifetime to a little blonde, skinny girl who had a giant hole in her heart. He may not understand the difference he made but I would be remiss if I didn't say......  Thank you, Thank you

Never take for granted the time you have to make God's mark on someone's life. Maybe you can be that one. Or maybe I can be that one
