I am 62 years old. I have struggled with being left alone.
I have struggled with this fear for a long time.
I have listened to this lie that I am going to be Left .
It started out when my parents went to the Ex without me. They took my sister.
I found this scary as a 3 year.
I panicked when I didn't understand the lesson and the teacher didn't come to me right away.
I felt alone. I was afraid I was going to be left again with no one to help me.
In the Present
I'm afraid to go out because my legs May give out and I might hurt myself.
I'm afraid that my friends will get sick and I will be left alone.
I panic cuz I don't want to go through those feelings again.
I've had The Case of the what ifs.
Jesus before he went back to heaven told his disciples not to fear.
Jesus said
He would leave his Holy Spirit to comfort them to strengthen them who would never leave them.
The what ifs left me afraid.
Alone
Stressed out
A couple weeks ago I had an experience that was scary for me at the time. My husband and I had gotten separated on the trail.
It began to rain. I was getting wet. And I wondered why my husband wasn't where he said he would be?
I began to take a fit. I called out to God.
And God reassured me that he was right there with me he was not going to leave me.
I could choose to have a fit or Faith.
I chose to let go of the what ifs that day.
My new statement was whatever happens to me I know that God is with me. I know that God will look after me. Whatever happens.
Whatever happens I'm sheltered in the arms of God. He Shields me in a storm. He strengthens me.
I have Jesus with me in my heart and I can come to him at any time. Because his Holy Spirit is dwelling inside of me and giving me strength.
There's healing, when I'm reassured that he is with me. When I can relax and say the Lord is my strength the Lord will never leave me nor forsake me.
Whatever happens I have faith that Jesus will do what he said he would do for me. He is faithful
I'm beginning to find healing from this fear. It is so reassuring after 62 years to have my fears dissolved .
You are not alone friends, adopty friends. God is with us in a good and the bad. Reach out to him
