Good Friends are like Stars. You don't always see them. But You know they're always there ....

I was driving to Mass this morning.  Something distressing happened yesterday.  I kept praying to Jesus about it.  I kept giving him the sadness I felt.  But I had to talk to someone.  I thought of my dear friend, Cathy.  Cathy and I don't see each other as often anymore because her kids go to school and I homeschool mine.  We have opposite schedules.  I miss our times together.  I was hoping she'd be at Mass this morning.  Dear Lord, I just need to talk to someone.

Mass had already started when we arrived.  So we stayed at the back.  It was a comfort to know that I was going to receive You, Lord.  As I was waiting towards the end of the Communion line, someone tapped me from the side.  It was CATHY!  It was so comforting to see her sweet, warm smile!  You are so good, Lord!  Thank you for sending my dear friend to me at this time of need.  Even though You allowed last night to happen, You have provided for me.  Thank you for showing me Your Love, for taking care of me during this time of need through my dear friend, Cathy.
