The Blessing of Friendship

Just as lotions and fragrance give sensual delight, a sweet friendship refreshes the soul. (Proverbs 27:9 MSG)

I truly believe that God brings people into our lives for a season to guide us, support us, and to help us hear His still small voice. God brought an amazing woman and mom into my life last year and this week I was reminded if what a blessing she is to me! God created each of us to live within community, but women have a special need for other ladies to join us in our journey. Do you have a girlfriend that you can call to laugh and cry with?

The last year for me has been an optional and spiritual roller coaster and having her to talk with has been so healing! Things that i would share feeling completely guilty as a mom fell on understanding ears and we both learned something about ourselves! Motherhood - life itself - is riddled with times when we are faced with a choice to hear the voice of guilt and shame or the hear the voice of Truth that urges us to strive for perfect love and new beginnings found in Christ!

It is so refreshing to be able to talk into the early hours of the morning about life and the trials and blessings of marriage and motherhood with someone who just gets you. I pray that your eyes would be opened to the special angels in disguise God has already placed in your life.
