Advent Day 8- Church and Vulnerability

During this Advent Season I have become the vulnerable one as well.  I couldn't get to church because of my bronchitis.  I was so exhausted from the coughing I couldn't even make it to watch my girls in the Christmas pageant and hear them singing.  I was even too tired to feel guilty about it.  My coughing was so rough that my husband took me to urgent care.  I got some medicine and now I am finally feeling relief and slept just about all through the night.  Sometimes we need to be the ones accepting the help.  A great lesson to learn during this Advent.
