This is the first time I've ever had someone say that to me. It made me smile.
This weekend I went to a retreat called "Freedom in Jesus". It's a powerful time of getting rid of some of the nagging and strangling sins in one's life and growing spiritually. I went through it a couple years ago - so this time I was a presenter. This retreat also bonds people together like you wouldn't believe. So I made some great new friends. Anyway, one guy was there without his wife and as we were leaving he said: I'd really like for you to meet my wife - I think she would like hanging out with you. I felt so grown up and yet so much like a kid. Now many of you may be wondering why the big deal. I am fully aware that you have likely had such comments directed toward you many times in your life - I've probably directed some of them your way - not for hanging out with wives, but other friends, people you would get along with. No one has ever said such a thing to me before. It's new. I like being liked.
