Wish I didn't feel so lonely...

It's bad enough going through everything I'm feeling, but feeling alone along with it makes it all that much harder.

I think I need some *gasp* human companionship.

Hey Mom,
Just catching up on your blog. Sorry things are so rough for you right now. I can't imagine what you are going through. I hope there are people around supporting you? Places you can go, people you can call?
Stay strong,
:hug:

God whispers to us in our pleasures,
Speaks to us in our conscience,
But shouts in our pains.
It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.
-C.S. Lewis


Try to watch this music video. It spoke and still speaks so strongly to me in my ongoing struggle with an undiagnosed illness. I know it will speak to you in its own way.

Stay strong in God's loving embrace, Mom.
He loves you more than the sun and the stars that He taught how to shine. You are His and you shine for Him, too. He loves you. (Check out Matthew West's song "More." It's a great one. =] )

Does your church have a widows/windowers support group? Maybe you really need people who can understand better what you are going through than the people who are currently around you. :hug:

Momma. You aren't along, no matter how lonely it feels, I can promise you that. Our comfort isn't reliant on these externalities, even though it hurts without them.

I love you Mom. :) *hug*

All your responses have meant so much to me. Thank you for caring and taking the time to comment. I appreciate the encouraging words.

I am feeling better today after spending some time reading a book written by a man who also suffered a devastating loss. It helped me not feel so alone. It was like spending the afternoon with an understanding and compassionate friend.

The book is A Grace Disguised by Jerry Sittser.
