It's Christmas break for many of us and it's a time to rest and relax from our jobs, school, and have a break from our busy lives.
BUT, since we are on a break, loneliness can set in. An emptiness.
If you're like me and you are in college then you can relate.
We go from seeing our friends each and everyday to not seeing them at all.
I am from Texas, so most of my friends from college are about 11 hours away or more, so it's not like I can take a quick drive and go meet them for coffee.
How sad is it that we live off these text messages from our friends. The other day, I got so excited that one of my friends texted me saying, "I miss you so much!!"
Yes, it is good to miss your friends. I'm not saying it's bad.
BUT, in this time of break, Seek after the Lord's presence.
I bet He misses you too.
Take a day, go to Starbucks, O'Henrys (for my Alabama readers), go to a park, or somewhere quiet and read God's word. Talk to Him. Pray to Him. He will listen to you for hours.
Yes, you can miss your friends, but I bet someone much bigger and better misses you too.
