Recently
an elderly woman edging near despair made a startling statement. "I realize
my whole life has been a sham!" She never intended to be deceptive, but now in the autumn of her years she's had no
friends. Explaining further, she told of never permitting anyone get close. She
had spent her whole life keeping others at a distance.
God created the family for each other.
In his design, family members relate to
one another with love, trust, and respect. This framework makes way for openness
and honesty. This is not easy to accomplish, for it takes commitment, but the rewards
far outweigh the loneliness and isolation of a life locked away from others and
God.
No
matter what your age, change is possible and can begin by taking a small step
of faith to alter the way you live. The Lord Jesus Christ stands ready to help.
Listen to Psalm 118:5-6. "In my anguish, I cried out to the Lord, and he
answered me by setting me free. The Lord is with me; I will not be
afraid." May God bless you today.
