Over the weekend, it was hard for me, I cry at the drop of a hat at words that touch my heart. During my hard times I had four friends surrounding me,and I have to name them and share the blessings. When I was down and hurting,my friend Ellen flung twizzlers my way,making me laugh.My friend Dena,who would turn and give me one of her great smiles and I knew she was with me.My great friend Dawn M who seemed to know my pain,putting her arm around me,I could feel her strength as God moved through her,and my amazing friend Bobbie,who when I couldn't take it much longer,I got up out of my seat and went to the bathroom to break down. I knew pain was right on the surface. I am standing there,and hear she is with her arms open wide,sharing with me the words I so needed to hear. Words that the Lord filled her with to touch my heart. She was missing the concert,but I came first.She opened up her arms and just let me cry, sheding the tears of hurt and lose. She was at my aid, and being a vessel of God. It is awesome just how God places the right friends at the right moment to help us see the whole picture, to see God's love moving. I was letting go of tears and pain that so needed to be let go of. These ladies all spoke to me when I got home in some way,but all different methods. They were checking on me and sharing the blessings of real friendship. Blessings are all around us,and I had quite a few wonderful,Godly women to help me along my path,and I am forever greatful for their love and their amazing touch,a little sprinkle of love,and reminding me I am never alone.You four were my fireflies, that light my way, that bring the beauty into my life,lifting me up and helping me let go.
