You know when you have a truly tough week? You could actually call it a horrible week. When you are sitting there thinking is this really happening because you know you’ve done nothing wrong, but the actions and words the person is saying to you are cutting you like a knife. You were totally blindsided by things happening and things that were said behind your back because it's all smiles when you are around. Well the start of the week was one of those weeks for me! Well I say

When are you arranging the next meet up? Can you do me a favour? I need you to tell me what I should do about this? I need your prayers. You have probably heard these sentences from friends and family, which are generally the usual questions and statements we hear from them, nothing wrong with that.
