Sisters

I am so grateful to God for his has given me a sister with a depth of love for me I have not known. She is an infinite well of love for me, its amazing where God shows himself.

My sister is a couple of years older than me. I have her complexion, my middle name is her surname and we laugh ourselves silly together. At times Ive been challenged by this relationship, we shared a house together for six months and she can be confronting and I can be a little stubborn, LOL.

Its a friendship that keeps pushing me forward, just wallowing in pity is not an option. Shes my own personal Joyce Meyer. She knows the word of God, shes a wellspring into my life. She speaks with the same kind of certainty in God and His promises.

The amazing thing is that she values my friendship also. I add to her life. To get that into my spirit I will confess shes had to say it probably a hundred times, I've denied it everytime but I'm finally realising it is true. I'm blown away that I can be a positive into someones life. Clearly if nothing else that is proof that there must be a God. I cant even find my words but I have never felt I've been a positive into the life of someone else, and especially someone who has her act together. This is not a person who is empty seeking assurance from just anywhere, this is a woman who goes to God first and foremost. That He would use me to add something to Her life is beyond words.

So my sister and I watched a movie last night called Rumour Has It, it was very funny, very much a feel good chick flick. We shared a meal together with her children and we gave each other a spontaneous gift. It's amazing really, God knows the desires of our heart. You see I have this skirt she always complements me on and there was one of clearance so I thought of her and bought it for her, shes wonderful I just wanted to show her. Anyway I give her the skirt last night and on her way home from work when I was coming over she bought me a bunch of flowers. The thing was that she didnt know I bought her anything and I didnt know she did. More amazing, she was admiring someone elses skirt the other day and really wanted a new skirt, but couldnt justify spending the money on herself. As for me I love flowers but I never buy them for myself, I cant justify it to myself, BUT GOD he knows and here we are both desiring to bless the other person without thought for ourselves and God turns around and blesses both of us. How Incredible.

So to my sister Cathy, I love you and Caramello Koalas will always make me dream big.

Bec.
