  I take for granted how lucky I was growing up and don't realize that everyone doesn't grow up as I did. I had a wonderful childhood for the most part and can't really complain about too much. But let me give you a little (non-specific) information about a young lady that truly amazes me. There is a young lady that I got to spend some time with teaching this summer that really impressed me.
She had a wonderful personality and a work ethic that was quite superior. This girl seemed to have not a worry in the world. When I returned to my home, I began getting some email correspondence from her. Without getting specific, this young lady asked for my prayers because a family member was having some very difficult times and it was causing strain on the entire family. The more I read about this and received updates, the more I felt terrible that she was in that position.
She continually said that she wanted God's will to prevail and that she trusted in him. I admire that depth of faith and would like to say that I share it with her. I found out that all this started just BEFORE the period of time that I taught her. How amazing! This girl set aside all of her personal difficulties and gave 100% of her concentration to what I was trying to teach her. This is very amazing to me and I know that she will go far. It appears now that things are better with her family and I know that she seems to be more relieved. I will keep praying for her, not only for relief of her personal difficulty, but also that she will succeed and go on to great things.
