If you know me, you know that my parents did not bear 2 son's into their family. They first begat me, then my sister. No physical family member brother. The brother I refer to is a brother in Christ. While I know that being part of the body of Christ means that I have a ton of brothers...it's not typical that anyone really ACTS like one.
Yesterday, I was vomitting my angst and concerns to one of these brothers. Typically, I don't expect much afterward. Very few have ever hung in there with me in an honest attempt to love me as they love themselves. Honestly, I can see how difficult I can make that. Realisticly, I struggle doing to others as I would have done to me. But, this morning I see an email pop up from the same vomit receiving brother. An email of prayer and encouragement.
Thank you God for the heart of that man! Thank you for the talent you've given him and the work that he does. It is a great example of how the body should be and I pray the I have learned a life altering thing in what was done.
