When we moved about a year ago, I was looking forward to the new. I was excited to meet new people and establish better routines with a fresh start. I was ready to engage in friends ship and intertwine my life with the people in the church. After being here nearly a year, the Shepherd and I still do not have friendships that feel deep and meaningful.
Tonight, I attended a ladies’ event. It was simple – an open invitation to the ladies to come for lemonade and cookies. A dozen of us were came and gathered in a living room for conversation. And it was very enjoyable. It was a low pressure evening with normal easy conversation and I was a part. Just an enjoyable time.
