Special Person in My Life

People walk in and out of your life everyday. Some people move on through the heartache and pain, and others hold on to that one somebody who has made a lasting impression on their life. Seventeen years of my life I was gratefully blessed to have a very special person in my life. That special person was there for everything from birth. Everyone has certain people in their lives that mean a lot to them, but it really takes a great person to be special to you.
I have had many special people come into my life. The person I thought about the most when I was thinking about my one special person is my grandmother. I was blessed to have her around for seventeen years of my life. She was a very humble lady who everyone got along with. She was one who looked to God for strength and courage. Therefore I looked to her to get my courage and strength. My grandmother was there through everything from birth.
My grandmother was special in many different ways. The main thing I can remember about her was the way she treated people. She never once met a stranger. She treated people as if they were all equal, which they are in God’s eyes. Her religion came before everything; she always looked to God for strength and courage in everything she did. The thing that is so special about her religious affiliation is that she has passed it on to me. She took me to church when I was a small child and as I got older the choice became mine to continue to go to church or not. Of course, I chose to continue going to church with my grandmother. If it weren’t for her I would not have the relationship I have with God today. I believe it takes a very special person to introduce you to God, it takes a huge amount of love to show you the way to the Lord.
Everyone has a person that they can rely on. You know, the person you can go to and tell them about what’s going on in your life at the time. I think it takes a special person to sit and take the time to listen to whatever you want to talk about at
