Makarios

This evening, I had the privilege of helping a lately depressed boy with his math lesson. God had given me a love for this boy. He usually goes to after-school care, and one of the lady who runs it asked me if I could help God's special created being with his math homework. I readily agreed. There was some stuff that was hard for me to explain to him, but we pushed through. He had been assigned 2-48 even, and we got the problems done before 5:00 (when school gets out at 3:20, and I probably didn't start helping him until 3:35 or so)! I had such an awesome feeling afterwards. I felt so privileged to be able to help this young man, even with something as simple as helping him with his homework. I don't know for sure, but I don't know if he knows Christ. Hopefully I planted a seed tonight. And hopefully things will keep looking up, as they are right now (at least, I think they are). Hopefully I showed this boy Christ's love. I felt blessed afterward. I wonder if this is what "makarios" is. If so, then I am makarios. What a wonderful way to spend my time. I don't regret it at all!
