PRAYERS

I just got back from my prayer group. We meet every other week, so we hadn’t met since I received the diagnosis. Although, I’ve been keeping the girls updated through emails.

It’s always nice getting together with these women. We’ve become quite a close group. It’s nice having a place to go where you know you will be supported, encouraged, and comforted - without any kind of judgment.

The problem this morning is that I don’t like to be the one in the spotlight, the one whose everyone’s focus is on. It makes me uncomfortable. But how could I not be, seeing that my situation is of concern to everyone.

Don’t get me wrong. I am so thankful for those who are praying for me. It means a lot to me, it really does. It’s just an uncomfortable place for me. I don’t like to be the needy one.

Maybe there’s a lesson there for me.
