I invited any of the women from the church who wanted to come, to join me for dinner tonight at a local restaurant. We had 8 of us come for this first dinner. We laughed and talked and laughed some more. It was so much fun! We will do it again next month.
I got to thinking how rare it is for women to get together without an agenda. When we gather we are usually busy doing something. Tonight there was no meeting, no special activity, just conversation and the chance to really get to know each other. It is so important for us to connect with each other in meaningful ways. We need each other and so often we do not have the support we need, because we do not have the chance to develop deep trusting relationships with other women.
I think tonight was a good start for us. I think that God will knit our hearts together as we get to know each other. There are good things ahead as we open our hearts and lives to each other.
"Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice." Psalm 105:3
