I have had health problems the last 2 years & the love & prayers of my sisters in the Lord have carried me through difficult times such as breaking my back. I am healing now! Friends have a way of being like a mirror to reflect back to us what we give to them. They share who we are when we have become lost in our identity. I am going on a retreat in a couple of days & pray for God to unite hearts of those going & that we may each learn what God desires for us. Thank you for this web site!

What a nice feature to have on your website! We can all use encouragement in todays world. I appreciate your transparency; I too have had many losses in last couple years. Vocal chord surgery has left me with weakened chords such that I cannot talk as I used to. This in turn has made me give up my solo work in church/at events; caused me to stop most of my public speaking (on child abuse), and currently I'm having problems finding a job, due to being a secretary (who would need to be on the phone, etc.) In all this, I have 'lost myself' in many ways and now need to find out who the new Brenda is, and what she can still offer others. I'm doing 'okay'...but it's difficult and I could use your prayers; thank you! God Bless...Brenda (Smalley) Robinson (First met you at Northern Pines) Hi Erin…

I love that you used your own daily examples to illustrate some of the things that most of us go through in our daily lives. I believe that by you backing up your day to day life in the "word", a scripture... just makes it that much better. The truth is, it's the closest I had come really leaning on Gods' word in a look time and I needed it desperately for some of the relationships in my life. I thank God for you. I pray that he will continue to bless you and your family. Erin, there’s just no way for me to begin to tell you how “Grown-up Girlfriends” has touched my life.
