Sometimes I get up in the morning and I am having a pity party for myself. Why should I get out of bed, have no plans for today, what am I going to do? Clean house? So that’s my only plans? Oh pooh. That’s not going to make me happy. I go on pouting and feeling sad. I really am having a pity party for myself. Few minutes later the phone rings. “Are you going out? I am coming over”. Coming over? I wasn’t forgotten. My sweet friend Mary called and she is coming over. Now I am getting excited. I am filled with joy. I hurry to shower and dress to get ready for my friend Mary. God is sending a friend to come visit me today. Now I notice God is not letting me down. I was letting myself down. Mary comes and to my other surprise she brings me muffins, which I love. We spent time together, we have a nice breakfast and talk, and talk and laugh and have fun. We talk about Jesus and we talk about our children. We are enjoying each others company. We spent a very nice time together, then she had to leave. I thank God, my friend Mary came to visit. She really perked me up and made my day happy. My pity party was gone out the window, and now I was ready to build a house, almost. God always helps you, when you are feeling low, when you feel you have nothing to do and no one to turn to. He provides. Jesus is always there to comfort you and to provide for you. I needed a friend and Jesus sent me a sweet angel of a friend. Thank God for friends. “Likewise the Spirit helps our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us, with groanings which cannot be uttered.” Romans 8:26. Thank you God, that I am in your family and you provide me with your blessings.
