But even while he was cooling off , he was still very kind to her.
A family in her connect group was leaving for Canada for good. The evening before their departure she went over to their house to say goodbye. For some reason he was there too.
Over the dinner she shared with her friends about her past, her dark past before she met Jesus. She told them how messed up her life was and how morbid she was. She told them about her suicidal attempts.
The past doesn't affect her anymore, she was telling her story as though it was someone else's.
But I think that night he was drawn to her again, after the period of cooling off. He thought her life had always been smooth , she must be a preacher's daughter who grew up in church, who had never broken any rules.....
I think he was drawn to her, not for her dark past, but for the transformation that he saw in her now.
He saw the scars on her wrist. He also saw the scars in her heart (figuratively, God has certainly healed her heart) . It made him wanna get to know this girl.
He said his mind was filled with colours. He must write it down on his blog.
She shrugged her shoulders again and put up her usual happy smile. ' It's ok, don't feel sorry for my past. God has saved me. '
She didnt need anyone to sympathise her for her past....she was a proud girl.
