Feeling Needed

Wednesday I was feeling as if I had no purpose or direction. My gym buddy Katheryn was on a cruse and I had no one to play with.

Thursday my friend Beverly Anderson came to visit for a few hours she needed company more than I did. We have both had grown children die. She has no one to talk to concerning her dead daughter.

Friday I went to the gym and met Elizabeth. She is 60 years old in a bad marriage and needs a friend. She is a born again Christan but not active and some where in distant time she was baptised Mormon. I counseled her for about 45 min. She wants to come to church with me. We exchanged phone numbers and plan to keep in touch.

On the way home from the gym I stopped at the 99 cent store. There I ran into Georgia Hoover I don't know her married name. Her mother Yvonne is in a rest home and not a happy camper. She will not get better and is being difficult. Georgia is in tears trying to please her. Once more I was listening and giving counsel for another 45 min.

Life has given me experience in all three fields and an opportunity to serve others. It was a good day.
