Honestly? I can’t say why I questioned our gatherings, but I did. I questioned whether or not I could share my story among them. I asked myself if my faith would stand up to theirs.
Trying hard to dismiss the apprehension, I couldn’t shake that pang of nervousness standing outside Kelly’s door before our first meeting. Yet, as I took hold of the knob and entered quietly through the living room, there sat three women, eagerly beaming up at me.
What I felt moments earlier was forgotten.
All of us, friends, individually, yet never together like this. Never to sip tea and bare souls, laugh and cry as one. What began as a simple get-together in a friend’s home turned into this place of sacred ground.
