A Prayer for Those Who Are Lonely or Iso...

Your Daily Prayer
About this episode

This Christmas, remember how precious you are to the Creator. Remember that there is nothing you can do or say that would ever separate His presence and love from you. It’s okay to go through Christmas feeling alone and isolated, but make sure you turn to God to fill those feelings of loneliness. - Alisha Headley
