Texting with God

I don’t know about you, but I definitely have a small group of “go-to” friends. They’re the people I turn to when I’m struggling with something and can’t seem to figure out an answer. With a few text messages and silly emojis, they always seem to lift my spirits and offer just the insight that I need to feel better and move forward.

Last year, one of my go-to pals got really busy and could hardly respond to texts anymore. I have to admit that for a few months, I felt pretty lost. This friend was one who’d always understood me and gotten where I was coming from. What was I going to do without our text exchanges?

I could count on God during my hardest moments.
