Desperation?

 

 

Dear Reader                                 

How desperately I used to be to be loved and valued by others!

Yes, it’s normal to want recognition, acknowledgment and value to be placed upon us by significant others. Respect and love are necessary for our emotional well-being. Being part of a community of loyal souls is essential because we are relational beings. In fact, humans are strong social beings. We learn very early - from that moment we are born--- can we cry without wanting our parents (or someone else) touching, and soothing our cries away. We are born with a vast sense of belonging to the very persons who bring us to life. In the womb, we grow accustomed to our mother’s heartbeat, movements and feelings. The song of life is those first sounds we are hearing when we are first hearing. We, as unborn children, feel safe listening to that rhythmic beating and to the inner closeness of our fluid sanctuary. 

We all need each other as much as we need love, acceptance, companionship and heart-to-heart understanding. In this aspect, we all fail a lot to give these vital elements to our family and friends. But I’m learning with God’s help.

 Respect and gratitude are two other elements of life I often find lacking in life, especially when we should remember to thank the Sovereign Ruler of our lives. Mostly I do not get it right with people, nor can I fix what I’ve damaged without His Ultimate Help. I ask for His Healing touch!

And I praise Him for the unmerited favour He extends to me.

If you are feeling lonely, maybe even broken-hearted, God wants you to know that He knows what you are going through. He wants to inform you that when your heart fractures into two parts. Right now if circumstances that you face, well, you can’t get through, I’ve been there too. But He wants you to be reminded that He can calm the raging storm. He is the Creator of our solar system—even our universe. Please, He didn’t create your trouble-- He’s ready to hear and help your heart’s cry--to be answered by Him. To be answered via other persons we know, He created, but without a doubt to be answered by Him! In His way and time! Your heart can be refreshed and your mind can be renewed by him. 

He set me free! He can set you free! Invite Him to.
