May 16, 2022 at 7:27 amDear brothers and sisters, I’ve been widowed seven years this month. I have two sons who are married to beautiful women and four precious grandchildren. My son who lives closest is an hour away and I see them maybe once a month if I’m fortunate. However, not even for Mother’s Day. My DIL’s family always takes precedence and I’m feeling resentful. They see her family all the time and never seem to have time for me.I feel I am used for emergencies and a sitter when they need one. I can’t even talk about with my son right now because I feel he is so stressed out over his job and a fight with his father. Most of my friends are married and have their own lives. Although they include me at times. I’m active in church and other activities but I’m so tired of being alone. It’s just really getting to me lately. Please pray for me. I’m so discouraged. Sometimes I feel like even my best friends can’t fully understand how I feel. I know God hears and sees me and he has blessed me greatly. I just need prayers for strength, hope and joy… Thank you for your prayers.

May 16, 2022 at 10:13 amDearest Dorothy, I, too, was left behind by my high school sweetheart 8 years ago. Our one son and his two grown daughters only contact me when they need something as well. I fully understand your hurt and pain, and believe there are many more widows and widowers out there in our same boat. Thank God we do have our Lord and church to lean on when our burdens seem heavier than normal. I don’t understand how those who do not know the Lord get through this. Praying for your peace, joy and contentment as I pray the Lord does the same for me and the rest in our boat. Praying also for our children’s eyes and hearts be opened to honor their fathers and mothers as God has told us to do. In Jesus’ name, amen.🙏 Much love being sent your way, dear sister in Christ!!

May 16, 2022 at 10:24 amAbba Father, I pray for my sister and all who can identify with the feeling of loneliness. It can be an incredibly dark place to be. You are our light. And where there is light darkness runs and hides. May we press deeper into you for comfort and companionship. You know our hearts, you know we need fellowship and true connection with loved ones. I ask God that you would do a miraculous work in her relationships and she would feel loved, chosen, and important. Thank you for loving us so. -nor depths Nicole

May 16, 2022 at 10:47 amI am like a desert owl, like an owl among the ruins. I lie awake; I have become like a bird alone on a roof. Psalm 102:6,7 Dear dorothyarob; Dear Heavenly Father,🙏🏻 Dorothy feels lonely, in discouragement, suffocated and overwhelmed by loneliness. She feels like a heavy, dark blanket pressed to her face and powerless to pull it away. It zap her strength and hope; its like arthritis of the soul—it just won’t go away. Lord show Dorothy how she can live like this? How she can go on when her soulmate–the one person she can’t live without, the one who was a part of her, who completed her sentences, who filled her thoughts, pleasured her existence, and gave purpose to her days? How can Dorothy go on when he’s gone? May Dorothy know, that you are her husband. “For your husband is your Maker, Whose name is the LORD of hosts; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, Who is called the God of all the earth. “Isaiah 54:5 Life has blown up and been scattered to the wind. I am a solitary speck in a lonely wasteland, a wandering soul in a dry, empty desert . Thank you for being her everything my lord. AMEN🙏🏻♥️🕊

May 16, 2022 at 12:57 pmDear dab sister Dorothy; Scripture tells us to be strong and courageous (Deuteronomy 31:6). The verse shares how God goes with us and will never leave or forsake us. When we are lonely, reading His Word can remind us of His promises. We are never alone. No problem, no situation, no worry, is ours to handle on our own. God is always with us. He is our comfort. I pray that God will draw near to you as you draw close to Him. Praying that He will send godly friends around you to make a difference. Praying that you will find a senior social group where you can play games, meet new people who share godly values like you do. Some games like scrabble on your phone can also help to combat loneliness. Praying for Gods peace to surround you. Continue to engage in activities that help your brain and physical movement. It shall be well with you in the name of Jesus Christ Amen Gods Chosen OneGA

May 16, 2022 at 6:41 pmAfter my grandfather died we, a family of four then, moved in with grandma for a year. But then bought a house quite a way out in the suburbs. I think we visited on holidays and some other dinners. Grandma solved her alone problem by renting two bedrooms to older still working women.
Father in heaven, Please help this Dabber find the answer to being alone too much. Bless her with wisdom and insight. Please help the sons and grandchildren to phone or skype or whatever the in thing is right now as often as is right for them. Bless this family with peace, joy, love, gentleness, faithfulness (Yes, to You, but also to her), goodness (It would be good to call), kindness (cards are nice too), and unity. “How good it is for brethren to dwell together in unity (and to maintain unity when they are apart).

May 16, 2022 at 7:06 pmHello Dorothy.. I have been divorced for 22 yrs and have two grown children and three grands. Though I have a great relationship with them – they have their own lives and families. I have two brothers and two sisters ALL of whom know I’m by myself. They travel to different places and never bother to ask me if I want to join. They’re always busy with their spouses. The loneliness is overwhelming. I go on vacations/eat at restaurants go to the mall alone. I’ve been praying for 20 yrs for a companion but nothing. So I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND your loneliness and relate to you 100%. My advice to you.. don’t stay home .. take a walk go to the mall, park, restaurant. etc. Yes it’s crushing seeing ppl talk and interact and you have no one to interact with but you never know what friendship may develop or perhaps you might meet a good gentleman. Don’t lose hope. I’ll be praying for you Dorothy.
