As an only child, I was always left out: events, parties, some of everything. I felt like I wasn't wanted. As an adult with no children, some of the same is happening, but there is a strong difference...God is with me. I am never alone. People may leave me out of parties and such but God will always be by my side.
Some may say "Yeah, that's what the lonely say to make themselves feel better. So sad." It's only sad if you truly believe you are lonely. Oh of course, I have great friends and many true friends. But of course there are others that disguise themselves as friends: true, thick-or-thin, virtues who are with you no matter what.
And remember to be there for the true blue virtues! Yes, that's a must. Remembering them as they remember you keeps the circle of friendship going and in tact. When in doubt, ask God who's true and who isn't. When you are unsure of the future, pray and talk to God just as I speak to you. Tough seasons call for seasoning and grace. You may ask "seasoning??? Bea what are you talking about???" Glad you asked. The seasoning are the lessons you have learned and are learning about yourself and life that carry you through the next situation. Ever heard of an old person being part of the "seasoned generation"? This is a person who has been through the fire and flood--but also lived to tell about it.
Being left out gives you great opportunity to season your life with great to think about what God is doing in your life, what He's done, and why He's set you aside for a time such as this. If you feel left out, you're not. He's getting you ready for something greater...Selah.
