Earlier in the day I posted on Facebook that I felt like someone had beat me up and left me by the side of the road. I really didn't mean anything about that other than I was tired after a stressful week and didn't realize any kind of scriptural allusion until after typing it.
But I soon found out how blessed I am to be surrounded by people who are willing and ready to stop by the side of the road and pick me up. Throughout the day other Facebook friends have helped to boost my spirits along with family and the thought of an evening launching model rockets.
It is times like these that I am truly thankful for how God works in my life. Being surrounded by friends who care, whether they are on Facebook or not is very affirming especially when I've been feeling so down.
So in a little while I'll head home after having been brushed off by those who care for me, keeping in mind opportunities to return the favor.

That's always been one of the assets of our church. People want to help. I'm just glad you stepped out there and expressed that you were having a bum day. Even at home, sometimes we forget to let the people closest to us do what they really, really want to do.
