Have you ever tried to make an impact on another person’s
life, yet ended up being changed yourself?
This last weekend I was at a youth camp leading worship with
my band. I went there to be a leader and have an impact on the junior high and
high school kids. While I was there I met a girl. Her life was a mess to say the
least; she was full of pain and questions. I saw me in her. I saw her searching
for answers to questions that I have been asking. I pulled her aside and talked
to her. She opened up and told me about her life. I was shocked; such a young
girl, but so much pain. I couldn't answer her questions. I feel like I left her
without much hope. But I left her with a few words and verses from the Bible
and I prayed for her. I don’t know what else I can do. She was looking for answers;
she poured herself out to me. I pulled her out to help her, but instead she
helped me. She has impacted my life in a way I could never explain; I won’t
even try to. If you feel called, please pray for her. She is hurting and there
is nothing I can do right now. All I can do is pray, and ask you to pray for
her.

That is so heavy. I've been praying for her. There was a guy I met in my church... and I actually saw myself in him... we both have lately been dealing with hardship that kind of left with emotional baggage.... so I know what you've been through
