This week, I hosted our annual ladies’ Bible study Christmas party. We had a great crowd, with sixteen ladies in attendance! We laughed a lot and enjoyed great food, but we also swapped prayer requests and shared struggles with one another.
I am so blessed by this group of women who enrich my life in so many ways.
We share joys together. I think about this past year – 4 new babies, new foster babies, new jobs, new ministry opportunities, and many answered prayers.
We also share sorrows… the family crises, job losses, parenting struggles, ministry challenges, and health concerns.
We’ve cried together, laughed a lot, brought meals to one another, and shared openly about our trials, weaknesses, and fears. Our hearts have been knit together as we’ve surrounded each other to pray and offer encouragement.
I love that we all come from different backgrounds, churches, and are varied in age and profession. The bond as sisters in Christ runs deep!
These women are my true community, and I am thankful God has brought us together!
so glad y’all are still meeting
