If we are willing to share our brokenness and weakness with others, He is faithful to multiply that pain into something of joy and purpose. Thank you for your realness through your struggles--He has blessed and challenged me through them. I am sharpened!

I've read Lisa's comment more than a few times trying to figure out what to say. Every thing she says, she says for me too. I am encouraged by your vulnerable and honest posts. When I read what you've written, I know I am not alone. And that means more than I could ever express. Thank you for not pretending to have it all together. You are in my prayers. Me too.

Reading what you share here is always uplifing and instructive to me. I always treasure your comments at my blog, too. And may I suggest the hours you have spent in prayer have most surely been hours spent on behalf of the Kingdom? We know that the prayer of the righteous avails much. Prayer can be a frustrating kind of doing because ultimately, we have no control of the outcome and sometimes we don't see any fruit of the time invested (this side of heaven anyway). But I fully believe that the time you have invested in prayer is time spent partnering with God in the lives of others. Be encouraged, Sister. You are doing more than you think.

You have been an encouragement to me and an inspriration for me to keep going. I do in a small way understand your frustration and oh I'm so like minded with you about meetings and agendas and "getting things done" It stinks to have to sit around being introspective... I continue to pray God's blessing and comfort and encouragement in your down time!! Well my dear, you have made a difference in my life.

Your faithful chronicle of this season of your life--the hallmark moments in addition to the vulnerable confessions of failure--has strengthened and encouraged me in the good fight of faith. Keep persevering, keep posting, I for one am the better for it. I am immensely grateful that though we could not pick each other out of a crowd, we are sisters and friends united in the bond of Christ. Love you, friend! P.S. Tag, you're it!
