Friends Reunion

I recently attended Luther Seminary's yearly Convocation. This year's theme was "Worship in a time of change." Very well done. Great speakers. Terrific worship experiences. Fun to be on campus to see the changes and see familiar faces.

The best time was getting together with old friends. Had not seen Steve since his chemotherapy a number of years ago. Fun to see him healthy and vibrant in personality and vocation. We met another friend, Curt, for dinner and rehashed old times and past acquaintances. Before we knew it, three hours flew by along with many visits by the waiter to see if we had yet put money in the check folder. We shook our heads many times over the crazy things that have happened to us and we somehow got through it all.

Amazingly, God has been so faithful to us. We are truly blessed by God's presence in our friendships that we can only give thanks and praise.
