Holiday Wish List

Hello Rivers Family,

We are down to just a little over a month before our annual Thanksgiving get together. I thought I would get a post going for everyone to add their wish lists for the holidays.

Please post in the comments below what you desire from your Christmas Elf...

What is the Root Cause of Loneliness?


Our loneliness is a heart cry, desire, deep in our soul, yearning for our Creator. For the truth about God is known to them instinctively.
God has put this knowledge in their hearts.  Romans 1:19

The tendency is to think, I need people and things in my life to be complete and fulfilled.  Not completely true, in reality, I need a relationship with God to be truly at peace, at rest, complete and fulfilled, then He will see fit to fulfill those secondary needs of my life.  I've been pondering this off and on for over 20 years now, and I've never heard a counselor or psychiatrist address this
root cause of my loneliness.

When I find myself feeling lonesome, that is my soul at its deepest level, wanting to connect with its Heavenly Father, wanting to be in relationship with Him.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.  James 4:8.
