Special for the boy trying to fix up my son who is (in my opinion) years from being old enough to superheroes and capes and then make you a cape and give it to you as a gift. It takes a special kind of friend to still be willing to admit they're your friend when you are running around the church with a cape on. And that is just the beginning.

During the last few weeks when I was really struggling mentally and emotionally , God sent person after person to me with words of encouragement. Right around the time I figured we've become old news and people are probably not remembering to pray for us anymore, I got several messages from people saying, "You've really been on my heart this week. I'm praying for you." In those moments I see the way the God of the Universe stops and takes time for me. And I see that he has already given me the strength I need.

We are better together. God has given me incredible friends (and in some cases sent incredible strangers) to encourage me and sustain me. So when I feel not so super, the Body of Christ rallies around me, carries my burden, and helps me to soar. My friend made me a cape. My friends are my cape.
