Recently we have been able to re-connect with a single Dad we "used to know." This man became our client when his children were quite young. One of our male volunteers often called this client to encourage him to stay on the healthy path he was choosing. They became friends.
Like many, a setback occurred in his quest for healing from addictions. We lost touch for several years.
The reason we re-connected is because this man remembered our Christmas Store, He has always shown love and concern for his kids. He called us up before the holiday and was indeed invited to shop at our store. It was a joy to see him again 'fighting the good fight!" He loved being able to get gifts for his now older children.
And again, re-connection happened. Our male volunteer is again faithfully calling this client. He asked the client if he "could get in his face when needed..." essentially asking him to be accountable. This man freely said yes.
Thanking GOD for this relationship that allowed for this degree of interaction. Also thanking GOD that He is always gracious to give more chances. Asking GOD for His mercies and healing. Thank YOU for praying for all of those longing to be free of addictions.
Be Blessed!
