How hard it is to feel so alone, I know! But you are not alone. Not only do you have our Lord and Savior walking with you, you have thousands of other standers around the world walking and believing with you.
The enemy is aiming his fiery darts and you feel helpless to deflect them. When this happens to me, I always turn to Ephesians 6:10-18. I pray that armor of God around myself and my family. Another scripture that helps me is 2 Kings 6:16-17. "Don't be afraid," the prophet answered. "Those who are with us are more than those who are with them." And Elisha prayed, "O LORD, open his eyes so he may see." Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha." I envision God opening my spouse's eyes to see the hills full of horses and the chariots of fire that He has placed around my family.
The holiday season is always a very difficult time for standers. Television, ads, billboards, storefronts - they all show happy families celebrating together and we feel like we are all alone. This is the time when we need to draw even closer to our Savior. The heart of our troubles is where He shows His heart to us.
I pray for God's comfort for you. I pray that you will feel His loving arms embrace you from above and that you will crawl up into His arms and let Him take your pain.
"He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young." Isaiah 40:11
