Christmas Blues

[salt-n-light]

Although I've had outwardly a productive year, inwardly I've had a lot of inner battles. No matter how much I've done, I always end up with holiday blues. Just angry and sad and bitter about my life, and want to just throw things across the room to alleviate the pain. Past two months, I've had on and off dreams about my stressors. And waking up to it today,i just dont wanna go to church, pick up the phone to family, or even get dressed. I find myself just wanting to be by myself. I don't feel like facing others only to be at the brink of breaking down or just snapping.

I don't want to be this way, I want to enjoy the celebration of Jesus, but with all these thoughts clouding me, i find myself easily falling in it. So just pray for me.

I am so sorry to hear this dear friend, I know these holidays can be a nightmare.
I pray that God blesses you with peace and joy in your heart today.
Personally I want you to know that you are much loved and appreciated here, You always pray for people and are willing to offer hope. God rewards that friend and may He bless you richly and abundantly

This really helped me get into the Christmas Spirit this year. It starts slow but builds and builds and by the end I'm on my knees.
Maybe you have your own worship music.

Father, it is easy to get depressed or have "after Christmas blues", not to mention "Christmas blues", because of memories, expectations, and unmet desires. It is all
a matter of perspective, and what we are setting our thoughts on. The movie "It's
a Wonderful Life" addresses this. We can also compare our lives to others who seem
to have what we lack, and then become disappointed. On the other hand, we can
compare our lives to those who have present suffering that goes way beyond anything
we have ever experienced, and be grateful for what we to have. Father, remind us
that we don't have to fall for the negative thoughts that are foist upon us by others,
or that we come up with on our own. Remind us that we can change our mind, our
focus, and our experience by focusing on the good things that You are providing in
our lives. Philippians 4:8. Amen.

The holidays are often a difficult time for people. It seems there are some wounds of some kind that need healing. I pray you get healing and comfort.
