#98 - Advent Series: 3 Tools to Shift from Sadness to Joy When Your Broken Marriage Overshadows Your Holiday Season
Someone says “Merry Christmas” and you could just roll your eyes.
You see two friends laughing while shopping and you want to barf.
Even worse, someone asks you how you’re doing or what your plans are for the holidays, and you just instantly start crying.
Not everyone is looking forward to Christmas… in fact, this year? This year you would rather hide from everyone because the pain is too much to bear and things are just too different and difficult.
You feel swallowed by sorrow. You’re sitting there in sadness over your recent loss, your separation, your first Christmas divorced and sharing the kids, or a past hurt that resurfaces this time of year… you’re suddenly lonely and filled with regret or longing during a season that should be filled with joy and used to be so happy.
Today in part 3 of our Advent Series, you’ll find that your sadness is very real… and that there is One who sees you, sympathizes with you, and sits with you in your sorrow. But He won’t leave you there, and there is hope. Go grab your coffee and let’s talk. Here we go.
Loads of Love,
Lydia
