we say,what'll i doif they leave and never come back?it's one of our greatest fears;abandonment!watch the young baby when mum leaves the room;terror appears on its tiny face.our memory records those traumatic moments and replays them later when an important relationship is disintegrating in our hands.Jesus understands how you you feel'......many of his disciples turned away anddeserted him(John 6:66). What was his reaction?indifference:who needs you?Fales bravado:
Í can't get along without you?í don't get mad,iget even?'No,we hear his intensely human emotions:'...Are you also going to leave?'"(John 6:67).it's all there:the pain of loss,wondering what's going to happen next,anticipating how it will impact us and if we'll be able to get through it.
When you're facing abandonment by someone you love and dread losing,remember;

1) Efforts to keep someone from abandoning you usually don't work:Begging,manipulating,tears and promises often intensify their determination to go.

2)at some point we all experience the heartbreak of losing someone we love or being disappointed in people.it's why God tells us over and over,Fear not,I am with you.

3)the pain you feel is legitimate.those who say, you shouldn't feel this way,are well meaning but wrong.Acknowleging pain initiates the feeling dealing healing process.You can't heal what you won't feel or deal with.So embrace your feelings,draw on God's grace,and move through the healing process.
