Relationship Challenge: Swimming in the Deep

Often times we will make an internal decision to "Swim in the Deep" with someone...meaning we are going to walk with them thru a difficult time and even when it gets scary and hard we won't leave them. Friends and families with cancer have had to make difficult decisions together while barely treading water, being close to those who have lost a loved one and walking with them thru the rough times, most of us can all come up with a time when we were going to go deep with someone else.

Today's Challenge: Prepare yourself for the deep. How?
1. Be open to the opportunity
2. Realize You are not alone as the only support system
3. Point them to God
4. Have confidence it will end with the verdict our Father has chosen
5. Be strong, realistic yet optimistic always

We will all face the tough times of life at one time or another be ready to swim with someone else because one day tou may be needing someone to swim out and rescue you.

Challenge Issued!
