Instrumental

I've been struggling with some things recently, and sometimes I feel like I'm alone in my hardships. It's difficult to ask for help. I don't want to be a bother, or to seem too vulnerable. And sometimes I'm just thinking, Come on, God, throw me a bone. Because sometimes I just need an extra boost to keep me going. After a few weeks of feeling that way, on Sunday evening it turned around. I recieved two notes and a plate of cookies from some of my friends. I am reminded that God works through people and if I try to help others the best I can, I, too, can be an instrument in His hands.
