Needing a mentor
May 16, 2018
I recently realized that I need a mentor! I am a ‘vintage’ woman who according to Scripture should be mentoring younger women. Yes, through Widow Connection, books, and teaching, I do that. Yet, with many personal challenges, leading an organization, juggling travels, navigating family including extended family relationships, I realized I lack wisdom. I need that outside voice that can question me, challenge me, hold me accountable.
As I’ve been asking God for that, my time in Scripture is becoming more meaningful, more personal. God sees my need for wisdom, my desire and willingness to be shaped and challenged. He answers, sometimes small confirmations of His work on my behalf. And sometimes vital insights. Until that mentor appears, it will be God and I. I’m good with that.
