A time Christ used my disappointment as His divine appointment was last summer, when my youth group had planned a game-day at the church office. I didn’t want to go to this event- I knew none of my friends would be there. Even so, I was forced to accompany my brothers, and arrived to see a group of people I didn’t know. I was introduced to Liubou (I called her Luba), a girl from Belarus who had been sent through a program for Belarussian children, to live with a family from my church. I became friends with her that day, and spent the rest of my summer with Luba, until she had to return to her country. Even though I had been disappointed to go to the game-day, God used it to give me a friend.
