My H-Town Buds

Meet Kenya and Terrence:



These are the people that I've spent the last four months training with in Houston. As much as I loathe Houston traffic and as thankful as I am to no longer have to deal with it, I love them more and will miss them so much. They're both amazing and inspiring, and I'll miss our daily talks.
Terrence once said something that was so simple that it was profound. We were waiting for class to start, talking about the different scientific theories of existence, and Terrence made the statement that even the simplest creature/object has too much purpose to be random. Even trees have ambition to grow - sometimes hundreds of feet - to produce oxygen, to lose leaves in the fall and then to re-grow them in the spring. Everything has a cycle and a purpose, and no amount of "Big Bang" could produce that.
Only God could create something so perfect. Only God would have the patience and the love to hand over his perfect creation to us, allowing us to screw it up in so many ways.
It's been months since we had that conversation, but I was reminded of it this morning while sitting outside on my patio, watching Allie chase the leaves that fell from the trees.
I believe that God put Terrence and Kenya in my life for a reason, to help me get through the challenging four months and to be in a constant state of learning through their friendship. And I'm thankful to leave the Houston office with two true friends.
