Somewhere in the world

me and my best friend Michael started this game..i dont even know when. Sometime in highschool, i think at our first sleepover ever..we slept on the trampoline in my backyard. Anyways, we would take turns back and forth saying "somewhere in the world someone is....". I love this because it reminds me that while the challenges and blessings in my life have been so rewarding to me, people could be going through so much more than us, or not as much as us. It is amazing that there is so much going on in all the 8 billion peoples lives on this earth, and gets me to think "do i have a shared experience as someone else?" or "how have their struggles shaped who they are". It is humbling and rewarding to think about this because it gives me peace in that God has a specific plan for me, and no one else.

"‎Because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for He chose us in advance and He makes everything work out according to His plan"-Ephesians 1:11
