Peak to Whee: Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 NIV

"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up."

There are not enough words in the world to describe my best friend, she has the most humbling heart and her love for the Lord is seriously the most influential thing. My first encounter with Sarah was on the bus to Elon for basketball camp my freshmen year of high school. I was the girl in the front with her hair in a bun, music playing and a bunch of bracelets on my wrist. My hair tie broke and that's when I had one of many awkward but amazing run-ins with Sarah. Years later Sarah brought up that first time we met and continued to tell me she debated with the girl in the seat next to her whether to give me an extra hair tie. I can say that from that day Sarah has always been there and I have seen her grow into such an amazing daughter of a king. I have seen her relationship grow and strengthen with the lord over the years and I have seen her love people so well. She has gone out to serve in places out of her comfort zone where if anyone knows her she doesn't like uncomfortable awkward situations. Sarah has inspired me so much and has been bold and honest with me when it has come to our struggles and our relationship with the lord. Over the years we have pushed each other to pursue the Lord in all we do and now being 400 miles away from her while she is a part of the Pack she is still constantly encouraging me everyday. Coffee dates are some of the most honest moments for us when we are together. she is bold, upfront and tells me of things she's learned, prayed about and struggled with and she is always bringing constant encouragement and advice. Tomorrow is a big day for my best friend back in Raleigh. She will be placed on a Young Life team as a leader and I am so excited for her. Young Life brought us so close in high school and was one of the biggest influences in both our walks. I cant wait to see her love her girls so well and show them what a life with Christ is like.

To my sweet friend Sarah, I wish you luck and I am praying for you. I cant wait to see where the lord places you in Raleigh and how you will help bring girls to Christ.

To our coffee dates, kayak trips, devos and conversations to finally getting a two arm embrace hug. I am so thankful for you.
