Bless you; it is so important to be a friend and to be supportive. But please remember that it can be just as damaging to be an enabler. If there is a serious problem, direct this friend to a Good Christian Counsellor.
Thank you for asking about my holidys, they were great, for the first time in close to 30 years I had my mother, who is 87,with us to celebrate. She is quite unique and active.
God Bless

Hey, Jesusluvsme; How HAVE you been??? It's been a while. I will pray for you in this matter, but let us know of your own status.
God Bless,

hello all. I received am email today from a new friend. I met her last year when we were doing a shift in the hospital and we got along from the start but we only started really talking this year. she has told me how unhappy she is and stressed because of so much course work and personal problems which she did not get into. she has been to counselling last year and feels she is better but depressed and feels she has to just smile and pretend she is ok because she does not want any attention or sympathy etc and I am the first person she has told and she does not know why but she trusts me. now that is scary because I have not been put in such a situation. I want to help but I do not know how. I do not think she is a christian but I could ask her. I see this as an opportunity to be used by God but I don't know how to be used in this. plis pray that I may know what to do and say.
thank you ![[hmm]](graemlins/icon14.gif)
