I have never noticed that word before RE-COVERING, like covering again. We walk out of God's grace and He just covers us again. Just a thought.
I'm going to learn to pick the phone up and ring someone, or to email or to talk to them about things that matter. Especially the phone because I make all sorts of excuses why I shouldn't ring. I'm afraid I will ring at the wrong time and they will be busy and they won't want me to bother them but when people ring me I very rarely feel that way, I'm pleased to hear from them.
So when I get the urge to ring I am not listening to any excuses, I will ring anyway. I did that on Sunday, I rang a relative newcomer (safe for me, he is gay) and although he couldn't talk right then he rang me back later and we had a short chat. Then later I rang my sponsor, and I didn't let myself stop that because it was late either and we had a very useful chat about handing over defects of character and how that works. And I sent a text message to another person from my group today. And I sent an email to someone today too and a message on this site. So I am doing well.
I will learn not to isolate, I will learn to connect.
