My family recently lost my grandpa who was such a beautiful and loving husband, dad, grandfather and great grandfather. As you can imagine its difficult for me to be so far away but its given me an opportunity to turn to my community for encouragement and prayer. People truly are wonderful if you allow them to speak into your life and be there for you, but that's the catch you have to allow them. You have to open up and say here are my weaknesses, my needs and my shortcomings. You must invite people into the depths of your life because its meant to be shared. It took the hardest seasons of life to realize this for myself and I was stubborn at first until I could accept the gift that those around me offered. Now, I will never be the same.
Lord thank you for all the friends and family that are models of your faithfulness, compassion and unconditional love. You have allowed them to help me see you. Always in your debt. Amen.
