My daughter is in Girl Scouts this year. As you might already know, it's cookie time! I decided to help her out by letting my Facebook friends know she was selling. I got several responses and so far, I have mailed out two orders. One to Goodyear, Arizona to a dear, dear friend of mine from Bible school. I love Valerie like a sister. The other to Yakima, Washington to a former boss, who by the way, is one of the MOST Godly men I've ever be blessed to meet. Loved working for him and wish I still did. Fantastic guy! Before I mailed the cookies out, both of these people mailed me money to purchase their order. No biggie. Just mailing a check, right? Oh so very wrong. Both of them put small personal messages in the envelope. First was Scott, the former boss. "With all my brotherly love" it read. Seven months of sitting right next to him came back in a flash. I can't describe working for Scott. He was like an older, wise and very Christlike uncle! Always encouraging...
Sometimes it's crazy. Sometimes it's calm.
