I usually don't let things get to me, but today was not one of those days. Not mentioning all the spam, scams & telemarketers calling like crazy but I just found out today that a dear niece lost her husband earlier this week. It just broke my heart & have done nothing but cry for her loss of her beloved husband. He didn't suffer too much & when I talked to her she was in good spirits but still the hurt was fresh. She is so blessed by her church family coming constantly to comfort her, bring her food & sending cards. I called her & talked to her for awhile & when I hung up I remembered when my husband passed in 2017. We were members at a church near us. Always there for anyone who needed help in anyway possible. But the thing that stayed with me was that only one person of the whole church came to visit me after Kenneth passed. No food was brought for the family that came the next day. My son finally went & bought some chicken & fixings. They were all eaten. I went out of my way to help those who had suffered loss, was in the hospital, even for the two who were in prison. One for manslaughter & the other for touching a child under age. Both have since been released from prison, one promised he would come & cut my grass. To this day he hasn't darkened my doorway. That is fine, but when you do for others I guess you expect them to be there for you. I finally quit going to the church & have found a wonderful church here in Dothan. All I can say about the other church members is that God is always good & I hope they never forget that. If they needed me today, I would find a way to do what I could, but it was times like when I really needed someone, I had no one. Except God. I'm so grateful for that.
Not a good day.
