One thing I have learnt over the past four years is the purpose of having a support group in your corner. I am so thankful that the days when I get down, I have had my spirtual mother to pray me through. At one point during these last four years, it was just me and the children. I had a few friends which I was greatful for, but nothing like what I have today.
I highly recommend that everyone should have a support group in the the body of christ or just even around you. I know what it feels to have the rug pulled from under your legs and when you dont know where is up from down. I have spent nights cruing, days crying, bills to be paid and I dont even want to face the next day. There were times I just would not answer my phone, becuase I didnt want to speak to anyone, but if it was not for the grace of God, who blessed me with a wonderful extended family which includes my spirtual mother, my pastors, my true friends and a few family members, I dont know where I would be today.
God uses other people to do his work and that is why it is essential to listen to God. God will use you to help someone who is going through a rough time, if you dont listen then Gods work will not be able to done and that person may just feel as if he alone is in the world. I share this with you to say that, I am so blessed to have the right people around me and I am honored that I have friends that can now tell me that that I am a blessing to them. I give them hope; they like to see how I spend time with the children and work around my children; they like to hear the positive words I speak.
Today, please be that support that God wants you to be for someone. It really makes a huge difference.
