Holidays and you are alone

Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet

Yesterday I received a note card from a childhood acquaintance.  She was telling me all her plans for the upcoming holidays.  She is having 25 come to her house Thanksgiving.  Then Christmas she and husband go her their daughter's house.  She said her grandson got married in October.

After reading her note card, I realized a heaviness had come on me and I felt "down" a little.  I am alone.  Immediately I was reminded of the following truth:  "You are dead and your life is hid with Christ in God.  When Christ who is your life appears then you will appear with HIM in glory."

That's right!  I have everything.

Col. 3 ... 1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.  3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
 

5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: 7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
 

8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
