He Found Me…

Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.

All those years ago, in the heart of a desolate child, God reached down and plucked me from the clutches of the enemy… in every sense of the words!

Utterly lost and forgotten, until He sought me out!

It’s been quite a journey since…

  • Dream of anything…
  • Snacks, of course…

Through anger, fear, and the nightmares that haunted me, I fought God for years. I refused to let go of the very things that were destroying me from the inside out… memories! Mine, theirs, the memories became baggage that only gained weight with the passage of time.

The good, the bad, and all that lay between… He never let go of this broken one, this forgotten child. After all the things I did to push God away from me, He still held on with such intensity, I could no longer deny Him!

Truly, I am walking this earth because of the grace and power of God, and God alone! Positive, oh yes… I’d say that encounter had a very positive effect on this child!

As I live a solitary life, I rarely attract eye contact from others, let alone an encounter.

In honesty, I cannot remember any positive results from encountering random strangers… just sayin! While I’m sure that I must have, at some point in my past, come upon a stranger that left a positive outcome… however, none come to mind at the moment, sorry!

In light of how absolutely closed and distrustful our society has become over the last several years, I find this prompt question to be somewhat out of place; not bad, mind you, simply strange. Nowadays, folks don’t seem to want any encounters that are considered random! The general attitude I see reflecting off most peoples faces, is something akin to, ” I won’t talk to you, if you promise to not talk to me!” I find it rather sad! Sadly, even being the Chatty Cathy that I am, I haven’t been able to come up with anything to share, at least not at the moment.

Hence, the cookies being offered before bothering to attempt an answer to this daily prompt. I will say that I’ll be pondering this for a while. Perhaps if this question rolls around next year, I’ll have a better answer to share with everyone.

For now, have some cocoa to dip your cookies in…
