Friend Therapy

Psychotherapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, humor therapy, hypnotherapy......

We are living in an age where you can find therapeutic help for just about any problem.
There is something in all of us that cries out not to be passed over, and yet it happens every day.

Life is busy, we have our own lives, pursuits, responsibilities and concerns. We can sit next to a person every day and hardly know them or even notice that they are there.

In Psalm 142:4 David cries out in a moment of extreme loneliness "no one cares for my soul".

I would venture to say that each one of us has felt like that at some point in our lives.

We were not created to do life alone. God made us in such a way that we need one another in this journey called life. I like to call it "Friend therapy" or
"one anotherness"


God has given us the wonderful privilege of expressing HIS love, concern and care to those who our lives touch.

So today I want to say "thank you" to all the wonderful women who have lovingly ministered to me through friend therapy, there are too many to mention by name.

I encourage anyone who reads this to be a friend today to anyone and everyone you come in contact with . Your smile or kind word could be a powerful tool that God uses in the life of someone who really needs encouragement.

You are never too busy to smile !
