seeing clearly I see clear.

Today I had an amazing experience that truly invited peace into a situation that with the wrong people could have been extremely destructive. I walked into a situation completely by accident that left me troubled, heart broken, and wanting a way to help the individual I happened upon.
I had the opportunity to sit through class with this individual and both of us were desiring to speak to one another and yet both somehow lacked the courage to summon the other. Finally I relented to the sense that the class was prodding through our discussions and the individual and I spoke for more than an hour after the class.
As we both opened up to each other our fears and concerns for the other, tears came from both our eyes and there was connection and compassion born right in front of our eyes.
We saw each other not just as people but as brother and sister and there was a special connection that only God could have initiated in that way that God brings two perfect strangers together and creates harmony. It waxes poetic in my mind the way that any individual could have been in my place and the story may not have had the outcome but God is in it and seeing clearly for him made it easy to see clearly for me as well. It was a revelatory and priceless experience that took two people looking for the good of the other.
