I had the opportunity to participate in IF:table last weekend.
The questions were about relationships and loneliness. And getting back to Christ.
Loneliness.
When was the last time you felt lonely?
Some of my loneliest moments have been in rooms full of people.
If you feel that way, you are not alone. I have learned to cling to the promises of Christ. But it is not easy.
I feel alone because I am different.
Because I have lost a child.
Because I am missing something.
Or I believe the lies that I am not good enough.
Deuteronomy 31:8 "The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."
I am not alone. I am not good enough. BUT, He is. He is good. He is enough. So I keep going.
I keep fighting the lies. Because with Christ, I am good enough.
Old news, right guys? It's a battle though, and I keep fighting it.
And I'm not alone.
