I know I've said these words countless times: "Let me know if there is something I can do . . .". These words feel good leaving my mouth. I've communicated I care about the person and the situation he or she is going through. The truth is, though, these words are empty and all I've done is volleyed responsibility on reaching out back to the person who is going through something that might not make them want to reach out.
Far better to simply do something- drop a meal off, send a note, pray with the person right then and there, send a HyVee card, then to say the easy words and wait.
