I am facing some difficult health issues and sometimes it feels like I am in a lonely place. But really I am not. Thankyou for the reminder that I am not alone.

Healing prayer in the midst of our communities is powerful. Thanks for your story. It reminded me of taking communion at the final Mennonite World Conference worship service in Zimbabwe in 2003. I had such a sense of belonging to this diverse group of people, many of whom I didn't know. The Spirit moves in the body of Christ far beyond our human efforts. Thanks, Annika.

I tend to "live inside myself" too much when in a dilemma. When I self-disclose to others I often find so much relief and help and love. Your words are taken as wisdom today....and I am going to listen to the song on You-tube!! God created us to love and help each other!
