Coping with the Holiday Blues
For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit… For in this hope we were saved.—Romans 22-24 (ESV)
The Christmas season can stir up feelings of longing—recalling memories of times past, or missing a loved one. Recognize that it’s okay to feel sad or unfulfilled during this time of year. Turn to God’s Word and ask for His help in filling you with hope for what lies ahead.
Dear God, when my heart aches with longing, comfort me and help me focus on my future—planned by You and filled with hope.
