God brings people into our lives for a reason.
My daughter Sydney has two close friends in her 2nd grade class: our friends who lost their baby a few weeks ago, and another friend whose family just lost their baby too.
Yes, you read that right. Three girls in the same 2nd grade class who all said good-bye to a sibling by the age of 8. What are the odds? Less than 5% of people lose a sibling by the age of 25. So the odds of this type of circumstance are off the charts.
Sydney wanted to do something to comfort her friends. So she made "friendship bracelets" from special beads for all three of them to wear. A sign of friends united and together for a reason.
When God brings people into our lives, it isn't without purpose. It's so we can support each other through the ups and downs of life.

Agree with what you said, this is not a random coincidence. It is by design of a higher power and giving healing to those who are going through the same thing.
ReplyDeleteYes! I have a dear friend who lost her child several years before Jenson passed away. She has given me hope and helped me heal by openly sharing her story. Friends are a gift...
