Heavenly Father hears you prayer and in time will answer. As a Senior Citizen, I to have felt the feeling of loniness. Our children are off living itheir lives, many of our friends have passed. It is difficult.
More over, our funds are not like the use to be.
What I do is get involved with my Ward. Like Woman relief, and other events. I also, let them know my limits. The members will embrace you and treat you with love and kindness.
God bless you and stay encouraged!

Oh my goodness! I’m a retired widow on Social Security, whose children and grandchildren live very far away. And a long-standing history of depression on top of that.
I’ve been way too often wallowing in the “I’m alone” “I have so little funds” “my kids never call” yada yada!!
I’ve often thought that Satan loves to see me sad and depressed, and that helps me end a difficult day.

But PRIDE! Oh, dear. We can often find ourselves bemoaning our lot in life with others. Just listen to old ladies compare ailments! Just listed to mothers talk about their challenging children. Just listen to singles complain that their blessing promised them a spouse, but it hasn’t happened. Those conversations can become almost a competition of who is most miserable today. (I’m not describing those very precious conversations of love and support, Sisters! They are essential to survival.)

I had never, ever thought of it as PRIDE. And sometimes, it is. I need to be more careful.
Thanks.
