I wasn't clear if the women at the new church you decided to attend have offered you friendship or not, or if you were talking primarily about your former church. Either way, I will be praying that God will bring those women into your life who could meet that need for you. Thank you for your comments.

Always get the story from the horse's mouth! Too often we try to live by the maxim "see no evil, hear no evil and speak no evil" without realizing that we have passed judgment over others deep within our hearts -- hence, the silent treatment.

Great story!

I know it will encourage many people. I love this story and it reminds me to not judge prematurely. We as women seem to be good at discerning and seeing through falsehood at times, but at other times we can jump o conclusions. Thanks for the reminder!

It's so comforting to know that we can connect as women, as daughters of heaven regardless of where we live or the fact that we haven't met... there are no strangers in God's arms of love, as He carries us through the storms of life. I was journaling today and sharing my heart with the Lord, praying for his PRECIOUS daughters, so many who are hurting, so many who strive to know their worth in HIM ~ may we all be blessed and encouraged to hold onto the hem of His garment, that we may know His full potential for our journey. Blessings Always, Fiona Rebecca,

I'm so glad God uses them to speak to you. I also hurt for you in this recent heartbreak and loss. It is good that you have friends and family to support you at such a difficult time. May God's Word speak loudly to you with volumes of encouragement as He reassures you daily of His love for you. He never disappoints! Blessings, Rebecca Fiona,

I chuckle because I used to work with 250 Police Officers :) My heart is also heavy, as I'm going through the worst heartbreak of my life. I moved my entire life to another province to marry the man who promised to love me forever; yet, in less than 3 months he ended it.... the worst part was the SILENCE as he and his grown daughters wouldn't say a word to me the last few days. I was packing my things with tears coming down my face & they walked right on by me like I was invisible ~ it was horrible & mean as you put it best! Well, I am thankful for support of friends & family, back in my home land now "Vancouver, B.C." ~ Daily in Your Presence brings me comfort & always seems to speak directly to me. Bless you always & indeed! Fiona Hi Rebecca,
