  • Sadie's best friend and former roommate, Laney Rene, has some real-life experience with difficult friendships - from fear of making one to the unbearable thought of losing one, Laney can relate! Sadie and Laney first met while they were both grieving friendships that had ended badly, and they talk about their own shifting friendship as they were both single at the same time, then met and married their husbands, had children, and moved to different states. Laney describes her past difficulties with letting go of failing friendships, and why that ability was necessary for her personal growth. Laney describes how you should not place your happiness in the hands of others, especially ones who talk about you behind your back. Sadie encourages us to always remember: No matter how much hurt you've experienced, sisterhood and friendship is ALWAYS worth pursuing and fighting for - they're gifts from the Lord! Don't be afraid to start new friendships!

    I'm 43 years old and this is a topic even close to me. As a woman of God I think we deal with this on a different level. We constantly have to be vigilant of whom we have in our lives and around our families.

      I'm 48 and going through this. I needed this video!!! I'm still struggling with the hurt, but I also have to see this person ALOT in passing so mine can't be fixed with " out of sight , out of mind" . I'm trying hard to let go and let God heal my heart.

    It feels so good to hear that others can really relate to this too. I feel like I’m always the friend that is trying to maintain friendships, putting a lot of value on them, and it’s truly so hard. It’s so easy to feel unwanted and blame yourself

    The need for friends is so real and deep. Honestly, I've been questioning with my sister if somethings wrong with us because we just can't seen to make deep friends in adulthood. We don't do thing things people are age do, and we are both not married. It makes it hard.

    I myself feel like I have never had a true friend. I got a glimpse of a friendship but my life situation changed and that ended. I feel like I will never be able to find a true friend. It’s hard to not be discouraged. I’ve been praying for a true friend for years now. I’m still waiting on God. ❤️‍🩹

    From a young age I hadn’t been able to find a friend that I got to feel safe with. I was hurt a lot and best friends turned into bullies/talked about me behind my back. It has caused me to have my guard up as an adult toward other women. It’s extremely difficult for me to drop them in order to get to know someone and let them get to know me. It feels unnatural and super uncomfortable to consciously try to drop those walls to where I sometimes get a little awkward because I’m trying far too hard to drop my guard. This was such a necessary conversation for me to hear. This has been my life’s biggest struggle. I’m praying for it.

    I seriously thought I was the only one who felt that way about friendships, especially since a lot of my new friends in Christ felt like family and I wanted them to be life long relationships. It’s hard when a friend turns against you and wants to tear you apart, but that’s when choosing Christ is everything. 💡

    Wow, this brought up so much memories and emotions. I my biggest take away is that hurt in friendships is usually two sided. Humble oneself and apologize. a hard conversation may be needed to put the hurt and relationship out on the table. Forgive. So good! Thank you ladies for sharing your experiences about this topic. So needed!

  • @paigemama5904
    @paigemama5904 Před měsícem

    That was good. A few more thoughts. You mentioned iron sharpening iron. That takes a great deal of maturity to speak and hear what a friend has to say to you without walling up. If a friend feels you cannot accept any correction, rebuke, or challenge it can make gossip a lot easier. Friendship should not be entirely uplifting and “you’re awesome”. Friends have a great insight to our lives and can be a real tool for holiness but we have to allow them to speak truth and be open to it.
    For the young moms out there I am going to say an awkward truth. All your mixed gender play dates might include best friends under age 8 but you are going to want to be highly invested in some mom friends with kids of the same gender because it really will get awkward at some point.

    So timely I tried to hold onto my most dearest Christian friendship and they ghosted me once I got engaged as we were both waiting for our Boaz and they didn’t yet. I used to feel pain that they left our friendship but now that they got married and with kids they are talking to me again. It’s sad though because I really needed them as I prepared for marriage but we were luckily women of faith so I got through it.

    Yes, when I had a best friend when I was little we went through elementary school and everything but when it was time for middle school, she went her way to be a cheerleader and I went my way and we would see each other and never even speak, we weren't mad or anything it was just awkward.

  • @sharonengebretsen8370

    Hi Sadie I love your podcasts. You are like a christian big sister and it's so amazing because you have so many good reflections about so many different topics. I would love if you would talk about how to speak with others about a person without it being gosip or judgemental in a wrong way e.g. when someone dosen't contribute in your studygroup and you talk about it without the member being present. Would love your christian view on that since I can't figure out where the line is.

And I :) And permanently divorce/no reconciliation ever is a really really really good thing :) And when I went through this 9 years ago at the exact same time my friendships with my ex husbands friends/all of his best friends all of those ended completely so I had to deal with that. and God helped me deal with that/walk through that that’s a great thing :) And I love my Jesus He is my Everything:)@Sadie Robertson Huff
