Turn-table

Had lunch with a friend yesterday. She had called and asked for help with her relationship with her daughter. I agreed to meet her only after she acknowledged that I was her friend and not an expert! As she told me examples of what was frustrating her, I kept saying, that is a great idea! I'm going to try that with my family! Two points: 1. She stepped out and asked for help. So many of us don't! 2. In asking me for help, she ended up being a blessing to me! I truly walked away from our conversation with a new resolve to better my relationships at home. Moms and dads, let's stick together -
1 Thessalonians 5:11: So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.
Stay tuned and I'll share one of her great parenting ideas with you in a few days!
