Okay DeeDee … I’m still praying though that someone comes alongside that makes it easy for you to say “help!” We all need a girlfriend who understands and who you can trust in our lives.
Many blessings!

Thanks, Felecia. I do have a church home here, I guess i just have a hard time connecting with people. I have a good bible study group, and love meeting with them on Wednesdays, but still don’t have anyone to call if I need to get out of the house one night and talk or need someone to watch my kids in an emergency.

I always feel like I’m asking someone to do me a favor, even if I’m inviting people out for dinner or something. I probably need to get over that, and it will be much easier.

Oh that statement kicked me right in the gut. Six years and still no roots. I let that happen to me once too – you know what helped? Finding a church to attend (in this instance – a Vineyard). I still struggled against those who wanted to be friends and include me in their lives because if I was honest, I felt too broken to be loved.
I implore you to rail against that feeling! Its just the enemy isolating you.
Once I opened myself up to them God used me in such beautiful ways to minster to each and every one! I was forever blessed.
Blessings on your journey. Praying for you!
