Single Moms

One of the most important things our ConnectGroup at church does is pray.  While our group is not meeting over the summer, the habit of prayer will hopefully continue for us until we reassemble in the fall.  We have been praying for a mom in our church who is raising her small kids on her own.  Her husband left suddenly several months ago.  Her needs are pretty basic - food, sleep, time and good health allowing her the strength to manage a family on her own.  I really can't imagine the stress and fatigue she must be experiencing.  Our group has provided some meals for them hoping the small gesture will make that day a little easier.  As for the dad, there are a lot of things that I would like to say to him if I have the chance, but I will probably just leave it at "thank you for your service."
