Have you ever felt disconnected from someone you used to know quite well. Sometimes this happens because one of you moves, and sometimes you just grow apart for no apparent reason. It can be so hard to figure out how to reconnect, especially if a long time has passed. Their name might pop in your head from time to time, but you don’t really know what to do. A phone call might seem awkward. A Facebook message is too impersonal. You’ve even tried these in the past to no avail. Sometimes you just have to be patient and wait for the right opportunity.
I had that opportunity just a moment ago with a friend from my accountability group that left for college this fall. I noticed he was online and all I did was ask him how school is going. Sometimes it’s just a few simple words to restart conversation that has been put on hold. What holds you back from picking back up on a lost conversation? If it’s opportunity, just ask God. If it’s fear, you might just need to step out in faith. If it’s procrastination, you need to get off your butt and just do it. Do you have other excuses?
