Widows

Recently I have begun to realize that I have a few ladies that are in my life that are what I am going to refer to as "Widows"."  Some by definition are widows, some are just alone or lonely.

So I have added this to my University at Home sheet reflected as Women's Ministry, because honestly that is what it is.  I have three ladies right now that I am trying to reach out to in friendship and kindness.  One of them is a person of faith, two are not.

I am pretty excited to think about this, because I know that they have enjoyed my company as I have enjoyed being with them.  So it is a win win situation.

I noticed something with the formal church structure, the leadership wants you to do what they are doing, but when you say well the LORD has given me "such and such " to do, they don't really take much interest in what you feel like the Holy Spirit has asked you to do...in fact I have never had anyone say to me, "that is great can I pray for you?"  another thing to think about concerning the health of the American church.
We are all still walking in selfish ways with one another.  LORD please help me not be selfish and support all the work you are doing through all the people you have.

I hope that I can be a blessing to all my widows in my life.  I get to go to the movies today, and that is not such a bad deal, no not a bad deal at all! :)
