Girls Just Want To Have Fun!

I just spent this past weekend with 3 of my best friends from Virginia Beach. They made the long and expensive trek to Vegas. I had the time of my life! I didn't realize how much I missed my girlfriends until I spent time with them. We laughed, cried, giggled like little girls, and shared our hearts with each other. I feel like life was breathed into me. I am supercharged and feel ready to conquer the world!

The loneliness of church planting can be overwhelming. It wasn't until I spent time in deep conversation with my girlfriends that I realized how lonely I am. I have good relationships here, but there is something about having no-holds-barred, deep relationships that is good for the soul.

I think about women in my situation who don't have good relationships with people and I feel sad. If I feel lonely and have good friendships, what about those of us who don't? The loneliness must be suffocating. If you are lonely will you leave a short comment (anonymously, if you want) so we can pray for you? I want this blog to be a source of community for church planting wives. I would love for us to develop relationships with each other. I think just being honest about where we're at is a good place to start!
