Day 25 of "A Quarter of Love"

Today, I woke up ready to go to school and I was excited to do my act of love. School was pretty long, due to schedule changes yet I was excited for what my day might hold. It was lunch before I knew it and I was fortunate to have had a talk with Joanne Jundo on Wednesday about praying for our friends at school when they need it.

One of my friends mysteriously got a headache and it was slowing down his day. He was dragging his feet and constantly had his head down so I figured this would be the perfect moment to pray for him. It was funny, because it was awkward at first, because he told me a couple times that it was ok and that he didn't need me to pray for him but I insisted with a smile so he gave in.

After praying for him he went into deep thought and, began kind of quiet and I told him that God would be with him he would be his strength. After I began to chat with my other friends, but I can tell it was uncommon for someone to pray for him in a non church situation. However I could tell he was thinking about it and being willing to pray for your friends, at any time can truly make a difference in their lives. God works in mysterious ways and its a true blessing. I was also blessed by this, because for awhile I wanted to begin to pray for my friends at school and I was convicted to finally.

I'm very thankful that God was with me during this time and that he was my foundation to pray for my friend
