Thankful Thursday!

Today, I am thankful for my dear friend, Julie! Julie & I attended Mount Olive College together. From the very first moment that we met, we had an instant connection. We were resident assistants together, as well campus partners-in-crime. We were laughing the other evening about all the "crushes" I had on boys in college. Thank God for unanswered prayers, right? Some of those fellas... WOW! What was I thinking????
Julie has been a constant in my adult life, not to mention Mommy to beautiful Anna Parker! I always look forward to our 7:45 a.m. cell phone chats on the way to work. She helps me focus for my day... she makes me want to be a better person. I truly believe that I am a better person, better Christian because of her! :o) Julie, Glenn & Anna Parker drove all the way to Raleigh, welcoming us home from China.

Thank you Julie, for always knowing the right thing to say, right when I need to hear it! I love you Julieta...

Abba, thank you for placing people like my friend Julie in my life!!
With more gratitude than I can articulate...I'm forever His,
Jen
