Humbled by a Happy Thought

So I've thought emailing forwards and those tests and quizzes was a bit well juvenile. But there are a few that are going around Facebook recently that grown adults I love and respect seem to be doing. One is 25 random facts--and I've thought about doing that, but I'm not sure if I know 25 completely random and interesting things about myself, though I may try. But the other one is the "Things I know about you" one--where you list the last 20 or so people who posted on your site, and give them numbers and then you answer random questions referencing the number. It makes some interesting answers.

I was totally amazed when I got one in my inbox today, and a friend of mine posted in answer to the question What is the worst and best thing about number 15? (#15 being me)
"She can be her own worst enemy, but I would not be where I am today without her."

And I do know the first part is true--my own insecurities do tend to hold me back more than anything else.

But what if the second part is true too?
I'm awed and humbled by that.

That God would use me to make such a difference in one person's life. And maybe my friend tends to exaggerate, and just has a way of turning a phrase..but it was definitely a happy thought for me today.
