Frost shares his thoughts about family, friends, life
By Martha Jackson
I want to thank Eric Frost for sharing his feelings and thoughts with our readers this week.
So tired of all the drama in our world these days: I miss family time, when everyone enjoyed being together. I miss meals with everyone. I miss the joy of seeing friends and family. I miss the love and the encouragement we used to get from each other.
Our world has become a very different place. We cannot say or do anything anymore without the fear of someone getting upset.
Where did all of the love go?
I want everyone who reads this to know: I love my family, my friends and everyone else. If I have ever done anything to hurt you or said anything to cause you sorrow, I am sorry. I assure you it was not intentional – by no means.
The struggle of life in our world these days is a tough walk. There seems to always be an issue or drama that surrounds us as we move through each day.
Just always know: I love you, and I’m trying to always be the best person I can be. At times, I might not be full of Jesus but in the flesh, and I might let the world win. Hang in there with me. Pray for each other, and let’s all try to forgive and be a little more like Jesus today and a lot less like what this world wants us to be.
