Tomorrow’s Support Group
I’m feeling a bit better today, thank God. I didn’t make it to Sunday School but made it to church. We had Communion today being the first Sunday of the month, so I’m especially glad to have not missed our service. The sermon was good, even though I couldn’t stop yawning. I’m grateful that my Pastor knows about my fatigue issues so he doesn’t think I was bored, because I wasn’t.
I got most everything planned for tomorrow’s Chronic Illness Support Group. My Pastor is going to help me lead it for three months (beginning tomorrow) then we’ll meet and decide on what way to have this ministry go. I feel led to do this group and I know that God will provide a way for me to do it if it’s his will.
It’s a lot of work for me to do on my own, so having my Pastor there is an opportunity for me to learn from him how to lead small groups, how to use Scripture to help those that are hurting and how to organize and do outreach. Tomorrow we are going to discuss Loneliness and Isolation as this is a very common topic that comes up with our members.
There are many that are not able to get out of their house like they used to or are pretty much homebound now. I remember that feeling and still have it sometimes when I’m in a major flare-up. I pray that God will work through this group to provide what our members need emotionally and most importantly spiritually.
