That was once again VERY encouraging tonight at Divine. Ya know, often times we are so absorbed into our own life, our own personal trials that we forget that we aren't alone in them. We don't have to face problems alone. FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE HAVE GOD, secondly we do have people that love us as Godly sisters (and brothers) who want to help support us and lift us up when we need it. To PRAY for us. It's so good to have a group like this to just be reminded that not everyone in the world is against us. There are those who want to help us, not hurt us. We just have to be open enough to let them in. Talk to one another about what's happening in our lives. Just having that bond with people who share a commonality in Christ. It's hard to discuss trials and tests of faith to people who don't believe in Faith. What advice can they have for you if they aren't coming from a place of God? They cant, at least not the advice you need or have been seeking. God uses us as tools, we can impact or inspire someone without even knowing it, and that's the beauty of it. When we are around people who share in that same belief that God is bigger than any of our problems, it's incredibly empowering. Because just in case you were beginning to forget His word, or just when you were beginning to lose Hope, BAM, someone shares their story with you, and you realize then, your problems don't seem so big. You see an opportunity to be strong for someone else when they need it most. That's a truly beautiful thing. All of us can stand a bit of prayer for us. I know I can and I know I'll be praying for a few ladies tonight and I believe in Jesus name that they will receive whatever it is that they are seeking as far as guidance in their current circumstance and in their lives, in JESUS mighty name, Amen
