A Good Heart

I was listening to Adventures in Odyssey, and there was an episode with a young girl named Julie. Julie had recently overheard that a boy that used to go to her school had died about a week ago. She tried to figure out what his last name was, and when she did, it sounded very familiar to her. The name did ring a bell, she had remembered that the box where she kept every report card and letter from friends and family contained a letter from the boy. It was a note saying that he had a crush on her in the third grade and it was signed MIKE. Later that day Julie visited Mike's mother and talked to her for quite sometime. Mike's mother had told her that Mike hadn't ever had a lot of friends and told her what some of his interests were. Julie realized that the week before she had attended the same Jazz concert Mike had attended. She thought about it and nobody ever really payed ANY attention to Mike. He was a lonely kid, with no friends. He was a Christian boy and loved to draw, write comics and listen to jazz music. Julie wished that he hadn't have died, she could have become good friends with him. A few days later at school Julie sat alone at lunch. She felt so alone without her friends, and realized that Mike must have felt so sad and lonely. Julies friend Heather came over to see what was wrong and Julie explained that she wanted to know what it felt like to be alone. Julie noticed that there was a girl sitting alone eating her lunch. Julie walked over and invited her to sit with her and her friend Heather and the girl introduced herself as Michele, she told them to call her Mikie, because that was what her friends at her other school used to tell her. The reason I am telling you about this story is to tell you if there is a person that you see often who is all alone, don't sit there feeling sorry for them, go over to them and talk to them, try to be a friend. I believe that inside everyone there is a good heart, you just have to find it. God can help you do that if you invite him into your life, you will never be alone again.
