God. ALWAYS. provides.

i have this friend who is not like me. she's younger, i'm older. we have different families and different backgrounds. we have different likes and dislikes. she's a country girl and i'm a city girl (what she likes to call us). she's home-schooled and i'm, well, not. she's quiet and imaginative, i'm loud and logical. she has an elf dress.....yeaaaah.....haha. don't be insecure zoe, i love the elf dress. :P we have different friends, different hobbies, different tastes, different talents, and really the only thing that's the same is our eating habits!

but somehow, some way, God always brings us together. He's given us both struggles, hearts to learn, and someone to lean on. she's the person i love to talk to. she's trustworthy and fun. whether it's a worry of mine, something on my mind, something i'm excited about, a question or an answer, she's always there to hear it. needless to say, i learn a lot of listening skills from her!

i think we all need a friend like that. i also think God provides a friend like that for everyone, we just have to be open to it! it might not always hit us in the face. mine didn't. but i think that's one of the reasons i'm so greatful for this friendship. it's something we worked on together, and every time we get to spend together is a happy reminder of it.

we both realized that to make it in this battle we needed every Godly relationship we could get, and God couldn't have provided this one at a better time. so thanks to zoe for always being there when i need her, and thanks to God for providing for me even when i didn't think i needed him.

it's funny, because when you take the time to get to know someone, you may just find you have a best friend!

love you zoe!
eh.

us being us!
