Thank you for smiling

As part of my grieving and coping process, once again I joined a workout class…a “mom” workout class 🏋🏾‍♀️ anyway as per usual it is hard and kicks my tail.

Today after moaning, screaming, swearing, and crying through out the workout a young lady came up to me and told me thanks. I immediately started laughing because I thought my performance warranted a comedic Oscar. I gave her my typical response of “we survived”.

She replied that she sure did but only because every time that she was struggling and ready to walk out, she looked over and saw me smiling in the mirror…

(I cried when I got in the car)

This woman doesn’t know me. She doesn’t know all the pain and suffering I’ve endured. All she knew is that when she needed to be encouraged, I was there to offer a smile.

My God 🙌🏾 Thank you Lord for continuing to use me in a way that only You know how. Thank you Lord for continuing to let me smile through it all 💜
