All alone - God is there when no one else is

All alone

 

I’m surrounded by people,

but I am all alone.

 

Alone with my needs.

Alone with my burdens.

Alone with my hurts.

 

Not a single person really knows me.

No one seems to care.

 

So I learn to look up at God,

for I know

he has not forgotten me.

He knows me.

He sees me

and he cares.

 

I pour out my heart

before him.

I bring him my needs,

my burdens and my hurts.

 

He calms me down.

He reaches out

to my wounded heart.

He watches out over me.

 

Day by day I learn from him.

In the midst of all loneliness

I can feel that he is here.

 

When I am all alone

I spend time in prayer.

And in patience I wait

upon my God.

 

He calms me down.

He gives me hope

and so many times

he relieves my distress

in the most unusual ways.

 

God, I am so glad

that you are there for me.

Proverbs 14:10 (The Israel Bible)
The heart alone knows its bitterness, And no outsider can share in its joy.

The second problem - PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder)

The second problem I have a problem, or so I thought for a long time. Something bothered me immensely. Whether it was: suffering, illness,  injustice, bullying, abuse, loss, or anything else that threw me off track, what's certain is that the pain of it was etched into my mind. I got incredibly upset about it, simmered with anger and resentment, shrouded myself in self-pity and depression, occupied myself with all sorts of distractions, and did all sorts of things to try and get rid of the pain. Soon I realized that the thought about my problem had become lodged inside me, like a bird that has built a nest  in my tree. I'm starting to brood over the negative feelings. Day and night, they give me no peace. I'm getting so worked up about this terrible situation that I'm constantly preoccupied with all sorts of possible and even impossible scenarios. Soon, I'm experiencing increasing difficulty concentrating. Coping with everyday tasks becomes more and m...

Information about the posts in March 2026

All posts posted in March 2026 have a specific order to them. I have placed them in 3 different categories: 1. The Problems 2. The Considerations 3. The Solutions Posts, that will be posted after March 2026 do not have this order, but will be posted randomly only sorted by the time they were posted. It is my hope, that the reader realizes, that he/she is not the only one struggling with a certain problem. I have spent much effort going into the depth of each problem with the hope that the reader can identify with it. Over time I have come to realize that the way we react to problems in principle is timeless. We all get stuck with the same or similar reactions. At the beginning those reactions are rather unproductive or even destructive.  It is my goal to not only honestly write about different problems, but also give the reader, who is seeking solutions good thoughts to consider. I do wish for each reader to read the lyrics with an open mind and contemplate what is wr...

When the soul cries out - Emotional pain

When the soul cries out   When the soul cries out then the head is full with pain. When the soul cries out then it is obvious that you cannot concentrate. When the soul cries out then the everyday routines become difficult. When the soul cries out then any contacts with the outside world become more and more difficult. When the soul cries out then you become more impatient with yourself and others. When the soul cries out then you need a lot of love and comfort  in order to heal again.     (1606121555-1912,1706120737-0747)     Psalm 147:3 (The Israel Bible) He heals their broken hearts, and binds up their wounds.
