I was so happy to connect to my prayer group via Facetime tonight. Even though I am not able to be there in person and it has been a while since I have talked with them, it is as beautiful as a biological sisterhood. We are able to talk to each other safely about whatever is on our hearts. The ladies there started reading a book together to keep them connected called “Jesus Calling”. It has a short reflection each day including a bit of scripture. We read some tonight and talked about what it meant to us. Each of the ladies comes from a different place in their lives and faith and each has a wonderfully different insight. I always feel so blessed to hear what they have to say. Before I signed off, we prayed together. It was especially at that time when I felt there were no boundaries or distance between us. Jesus said in Matthew 18:20, “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” That is just how I felt. The group itself was formed by Jesus calling the leader to invite people and Jesus calling each of us to respond. My mom also has the book, “Jesus Calling”, so we are going to start reading it together here. It will be another way for me to be able to stay connected to these ladies that mean so much to me.
I Found God today in a connection made with friends who feed my soul.
