(For Friday August 8)
Some of you may be thinking that I am grateful for myself. HA! I'm grateful for people who have the heart to counsel others through hard stuff. I'm thankful for people who can help hurt, angry, sad, confused people without a bias. We all need a perspective that challenges us to approach what we struggle with in a different way and counselors can help us do that. Many times counselors can get us to hear something that others have been trying to tell us. Yes, I counsel people (I'm what you call a lay counselor since I have no formal training) but I also don't hesitate to see a counselor for myself or send my family to one when it seems to be needed. Right now two of us in the family are in counseling and it is good. Today I picked up the other Peninger currently in counseling and I felt so grateful as we drove and I heard a bit of what had happened in the session. So grateful for counselors to help us get through the valleys of life.
