Are We Clinging To The Right Things

Yesterday we talked about the abyss. Today we need to talk about who or what we are clinging to while we are in our abyss. Some tend to tell everyone their story hoping to find someone anyone to reassure them in the process. Unfortunately what they find is a lot more ridicule and pain along the way. We live in a "Me" society. A society where we are told that we don't need anyone or anything. But, we are also told that we are social creatures. So how do these two things mesh? They don't. We crave and long to be understood and accepted by others, that is simply who we are. So what we must do is with our abyss is withdraw our hurt and pain and only seek God's love and tender heart. I know, I can hear you say, but I want human friendship and togetherness. What we have to understand is that if we tell everyone our hurts and pains then we have opened up to a world of hurt, but if we simply turn to God, He will bring those few into our lives with whom we can share our feelings, hurts, and pains. God will provide. He will bring those whom we need into our lives, but we have to turn to Him first.
