You kept me warm...

Not wanting to get into the "why" of it, but lets just start with the fact that yesterday, in below freezing temps, I was standing outside, in 5 inches of snow, for 45 minutes. My Friend, you kept me warm. My Friend that lovingly gifted me with a beautiful and warm scarf, you kept me warm. My Friend that was on the phone with me, and checked back on me, you kept me warm. My Friend who is going thru a devistating time in life, thinking of your courage, and remembering your pain helped me focus on the outcome, not the situation, and you kept me warm. My Friend who loves deeply and bears the scars of the past on her heart, yet reaches out to those around her to be such a kind help, thoughts of you kept me warm. My Friend that has chosen to spend his life with me, who did the best he could with things the way they were, and loves me in the middle of all my "weirdness" you kept me warm. MY FRIEND, Jesus, the author and finisher of my Faith, my redeemer, my counselor.... You were right there with me, guiding me, holding my cold hands, keeping me calm... and You kept me warm.
