So been there, too. And it is bittersweet, isn't it? Because out of your loneliness... your suffering... and your persistence... the lives of other women are touched... and changed. God comfort us... so that we can comfort others! Amy! I so hear you! So been there, too.

And it is bittersweet, isn’t it? Because out of your loneliness… your suffering… and your persistence… the lives of other women are touched… and changed. God comfort us… so that we can comfort others!

I can say that the loneliness your talking about shines a light on something within me. I am so glad that Christ led me to MomsConnect! It has been a huge blessing to me and the boys. I agree with Amy A...... you're what keeps us coming back ;) Thanks for sharing your heart Amy! I can say that the loneliness your talking about shines a light on something within me.

I even had my own father for a teacher for two years in one location. We moved around quite a bit, and you do not have a chance to make lifelong friends. You see people who have lived in the same town their whole life, or gone to the same church from birth to death, and you wonder what it would be like. As a teenager, or child, you don't get through it very well, but as an adult, you DO learn the the good Lord is there. I remember one small-group that I started in my home, and only 1 person showed up! We had a wonderful study, and he continued to come, even though others in the church invited him to attend their studies. We found that we were going through some of the same things in our life- God knew that we needed someone who understood our pain to be in our life at that time. It IS interesting to see /find out what God has in store for us! And, Amy - there is absolutely nothing wrong with you - I love your smile...

I'd love to hang out!! Been there, been there, been there. I like what you said that they don't not come because of you and they don't come because of you. Those are wise words. Except I bet you could tack on "But one reason they *keep* coming is because of you," and it would be totally true. :) Oh how I wish we lived closer to one another, Aim! I’d love to hang out!!
