[book-of-summer]

my brothers and sisters in christ, i come to you in a time of need. one of my brothers have been really struggling lately. he’s lost. i don’t think i can pray for him all on my own. if you guys could pray for him and just ask God to put his hands around my brother and save him, that’d mean the world to me. my heart aches seeing him like this. we’ve lost both of our parents young but it’s hit him the hardest. i just want him home and safe. amen and God bless y’all 🤍🤍

Take care of the family God has given you.

Part of me waited to feel like I had a "family" because it wouldn't feel official until my husband and I had a child of our own. I'm learning to feel blessed with the family God has given me in this season of my life, and take care of them how I would take care of my familial ideal.

My husband and I recently moved into a new home, and my sister in law and her husband are renting the spare room from us. Since we've all moved in together I've learned how much I enjoy taking care of everyone, from cooking, to cleaning, to encouraging their ambitions. I never expected this to be the case, but God has truly opened my eyes to how a Christian woman can be a homemaker even when she has no children.

This might look different for you. Perhaps you an adult daughter still living with her parents and siblings. Take care of them. Perhaps you are a college student with roommates. Take care of them. Perhaps you live alone in an apartment complex, but have many elderly neighbors on your floor. Invite them to dinner, and take care of them.

God is faithful to lead us to a community, but sometimes we get distracted by the fact that it isn't the ideal we see for ourselves, and overlook our ability to serve and love them nonetheless. I've been thinking a lot about how I would feel if I found out we would never be able to have kids — and whether I could be happy homemaking for a family that didn't consist of my children.

I think I could, but this realization has come only through God opening my eyes to the fact that we are all His children, brothers and sisters in Christ — family by default, and all responsible to serve one another.

Dear God, please give me strength when I’m weak, courage when I’m afraid, peace in the storms, and protection in the battles. With You on my side, I cannot fail. I am moving forward in my purpose and calling because You are for me. The path before me is open and Your favor makes a way for me where there is no way. In Jesus Name, amen. 🙏

Um. So I passed out in the car earlier today. Thankfully it happened just before I put the car into drive and I’m okay now, but it really freaked me out. I’ve never passed out before and I don’t know why it happened. Any prayers would be appreciated.
