My "Take a Break" friends

I have a monthly dinner date - well, next time it's going to be breakfast - with 3 other women. We were randomly selected to be in this group and I think God knew what he was doing when he brought us together. We're all roughly the same age with kids around the same age. I'm the only married one - the rest are widowed or divorced. That's one of the things I like about this group. Typically singles are the odd ones out, but this time it's me that's in the minority. I love the different perspective that gives me. We're all at different places in our spiritual journeys as well, which I also like. It's neat to here how and where God is at work in and around each of us. Often our discussion revolves around a book we've read - great to hear what the other's think. I'm learning much from each of them and look forward to these few hours together every month.
