Today I was reminded that God knows each of us individually. He never leaves us alone, and even though He has billions of children, who deal with billions of problems, I can say with certainty that I am important to Him. There have been few times that I have doubted how close God is to me, but without fail, every time I do- He gives me sweet reminders that He hasn't forgotten about me. I feel that God often sends these tender mercies through people placed in our path. Often times these people come in and out of our lives quickly, others become long-time associations. Whatever the case may be, I know that life is about forming relationships with people, and learning from those people. Today, I have thought of many people who have significantly changed my life for the better. These people are all friends of mine who I feel like taught me things about life and helped me to see what truly matters.

Wow, to those who look at these pictures these are just faces--but to me these people are angels God sent to me to teach me certain lessons. They each taught me something different, and I think these people all helped me to feel God's love a little bit more. One of the ways I feel God's love for me is through the relationships he allows me to have. I would hope that I always express sufficient gratitude to God for the privilege it is to learn from all different types of people. I would also hope that I communicate to others what they mean to me and that I value them as a person. God truly is so kind to me, and I am blessed to have known all of these people.
