My Tuesday Morning Girls.
I am amazed at the extent of which God takes care of me. I have been involved with this group of girls that meets every Tuesday to learn about the Lord and discuss what that means in our lives. This group is amazing! We are about 12-15 girls and from all seasons of life. Some are just starting out having kids, some have grown children my age. It is beautiful. It didn't take long to feel the sisterhood in that room! Today, we met as usual to talk about our previously studied chapter in the book we are studying (Lord, only You can change me-Kay Arthur). But it is so much more than that. We are "doing life together". It is such a safe place to be real and open and not be judged. But deal with issues, pray for healing and strength, and just be equipped to be the wives and mothers and women that God wants us to be. When one of us is in break down mode, we stop and pray for the Holy Spirit to give guidance or clarity. It is so utterly holy. God is with us in that room. (Where two or more are gathered in My Name, there I will be also. -loose paraphrase, you get the idea)
Here is the most amazing part to me. We moved here only 6 months ago. I had my roots in South Bend, IN. So deep, in fact, that I still grieve over not being there! I have my friends and family there, but they are so much more than friends and family they are my "people". But, get this, God came with me...and has provide for me another network of my "people"! No, my Indiana "people" haven't been replaced, God has just provide for me an extension of His family. He doesn't only provide for our physical needs, He handles our hearts very gently and lovingly!
