My Peeps

Good morning. The people that God lead into your life are invaluable and should be cherished beyond measure. Never take them for granted.

I was talking with a friend a few weekends ago and she told me how much of an impact my writings have on her and how they often speak to her. Well yesterday, I experienced that very same feeling. Another one of my closest friends blogged about the very thing that I’ve been struggling with lately…loneliness. Now, mind you, she and I have not talked about what I was going through, and I personally didn’t want to. Instead, I chose to spend a week of fasting & praying…(A week that started off a little rough, but with the prayers of another close friend, quickly kicked into gear.) Right in the middle of my 3rd day, she ministered to me so deeply without being near me and without saying a word!! Her writings spoke to me and without doubt contributed to the re-aligning of myself and of my life.

“The Loneliness” by Rox

When we think of loneliness we usually think of relational ‘aloneness.’
I have experienced it many times in my life. Often we wish for a significant other or a friend. Sometimes we wish we were closer to the friends we already have. As a married lady, it’s easy to get wrapped in family and neglect friendships, although you want them desperately.

There’s the bigger picture of loneliness in relation to ‘a greater being.’ Some people truly feel disconnected to anything on this earth… I would think that would be the greatest kind of loneliness.

See, that’s what happens when our lives and relationships are divinely ordered. Neither one of my friends mentioned live within 100 miles of me, but see that’s the thing…its not the physical connections but rather the spiritual that counts! We can rush or force relationships all we want, but the only ones that truly matter are the ones that are lead into our lives.

Why waste the effort of reaching out and reaching out to people to people who may not even want to be a part of your life, when all you have to do is say a prayer and let God lead all of the right ones in? Much Love JM, RS, and BB!

Peace – Kimberly
