and something for today

Hi I just want to add that this morning on the playground with our classes, I had a sad conversation with Raffa. Your typical playground convo, I'm sure. In short, we were supposed to hang out Saturday but she didn't call and was telling me why. She said she 'cried' all weekend. It was really dark. She even had suicidal thoughts. She's 41, left a recent of many relationships, has the ache and longing for children and good things that never seem to find her. Maybe she 'deserves' this she wonders. Please pray that I can speak boldly about the hope I have and be a good friend to her.

I also had a chat with my colleague Daniela today. She explained a bit of her story how both she and her current partner were married before and left their spouses for this complicated international relationship. A lot of chaos in her life.

Sometimes it is difficult to share truth and not judge. Also I literally don't know what to say many times. Pray that God uses me nonetheless in my workplace. Thanks!
