During the Christmas and New Year season many of us have thoughts of past holiday gatherings with those we love and find ourselves reminiscing and missing the ones we love so much and will start feeling a little blue which some find hard to shake off as the festivity's come to a close after new years day.
I am reminded too at this most "sacred and holy season" of family members I have said goodby to but still hurt deeply as the seasons presents, gatherings, music brings back memories of so many happy times and heartfelt memories of their faces laughing and singing Christmas caroling, opening presents as we did so many times year after year.
My phone is also a prayer line and in light of what I am sharing, Yesterday I received a call from a man who shared he was missing his mother. I receive many random callers as my phone is also a prayer line. I never know what will be next as the Lord instantly switches my heart and mind over into a heavenly gear that must be "as the word calls it "ready in season" This caller a gentleman was missing his mother. Which quickly brought to mind and heart to so many many past memory's of my own mother and brother and how much I still miss them after almost 20 years. I could detect his sorrow amidst his guarded careful words. And I could feel his insecurity knowing we were complete strangers. Callers never know how they will be received so I am always careful to respond with care and love knowing a person is always hurting or they wouldn't have taken the chance to call in the first place. As we conversed it turned into a precious time of sharing which ended in my praying for his loneliness to be enveloped in Gods love knowing his mother is truly free of all earths sickness, disease and sorrows and is finally amidst her family friends and most of all her "Beloved Savior and Lord" Jesus Christ! A place of forever love and eternal blisss way beyond all of our earthly comprehension. He was touched and desired to attend one of my next prayer gatherings.
Are you missing someone this season of gladness and Joy? Yes the new has has begun but for so many it also has jogged memories of family and friends passed on into glory that we miss so much.
Here are some answers to life's thoughts and questions. We will naturally miss them but these scriptures will help keep things in prospective so as not to get over into depression. Which is not a spiritually healthy place to be.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death ,sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away. Revelation 21: 4
And low I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Mathew 28:20
Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith the Lord God. In the multitude of "My thoughts" within me thy comforts delight my soul. Psalm 94:19 -Isiah 40:1
" All Gods Holy Scripture always keep you in the comfort of His loving word" The Bible!
Beloved of God, My heartfelt Blessings for a wonderful "New Year" in our Lord.
