What I love about my life group leader is that he really knows how to console people. His words never equate to “you are the problem..your problems are what cause more problems.” Instead, he tells you, “This is you. This is the problem. You are stronger than it will ever be.” (Even though the first quote is often true, he will never say it. He knows it will not really motivate you at this point. Then he jokes about life and my cooking. Everybody has problems, you know.)
I’m so thankful.
