Mentoring

A very, very sweet gal I know and dearly love asked me several months ago, if I would be her mentor. Is anyone ever ready to be that in someone's life? I couldn't be more honored....it means many things to me....

But I feel inadequate. Each time we meet, I feel as though I have failed to do or say something to her. It is a growth experience for me.

Odd....humbling....honoring....

So, I keep at it....keep meeting with her...keep praying for her...keep opening myself so that maybe she can learn from my mistakes (that's a lifetime of learning right there!)....keeping the faith that God has a plan in this relationship.

I will stay in it until God calls me elsewhere.....but I don't think it will ever be a natural thing for me.
