I heard a prayer last year that really opened a space in me to trust God about my friends. "God I trust you to keep friends in my life and I don't depend on my own self to keep them.: What do you think?

I've been having friendship issues. But what I think God is trying to show me now is developing a friendship with Him. Sometimes I feel lonely, even with my husband and kids around, and I think that I'm just lonely for some girl company. But even after I spend some nice time with the girls, I still feel lonely. I think that God wants to fill that space. How He's going to do it, I don't know, but I think it's going to be very lovely. Funny you should be thinking about friendship too.

I've noticed with my close friends I confess to, it gets easier the more I do it. Cheers. It is really tough! I’ve noticed with my close friends I confess to, it gets easier the more I do it.
