“Sing, barren woman, who has never had a baby. Fill the air with song, you who’ve never experienced childbirth! You’re ending up with far more children than all those childbearing women.” GOD says so! “Clear lots of ground for your tents! Make your tents large. Spread out! Think big! Use plenty of rope, drive the tent pegs deep. You’re going to need lots of elbow room for your growing family. You’re going to take over whole nations; you’re going to resettle abandoned cities. Don’t be afraid—you’re not going to be embarrassed. Don’t hold back—you’re not going to come up short. You’ll forget all about the humiliations of your youth, and the indignities of being a widow will fade from memory. For your Maker is your bridegroom, his name, GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies! Your Redeemer is The Holy of Israel, known as God of the whole earth. You were like an abandoned wife, devastated with grief, and GOD welcomed you back, Like a woman married young and then left,” says your God.

Overcoming the shame of rejection requires getting to the root of the lie you believed when you were forsaken and hurt. The Lord loves you, and He still has a 'good' plan for your life, but you won't experience the good if you keep living and loathing in shame. God wants to heal your shame and give you His Joy in exchange for sorrow. Will you trust Him?

If you feel lost and alone at times as a single mom, empty nester, widow… or sad because you never married, are divorced, and/or have been bedazzled, then abandoned by unavailable men… God has good news! You’re seen, known, and passionately loved. Found. Your Maker calls you to a honeymoon in the desert where He promises roses for ashes and you’ll sing like a new bride.
The Enneagram is an ancient personality typology. The theory behind it is that a person assumes one of nine personalities in childhood as a reaction to discovering the world as a scary, unkind place, and thus unlikely to accept their true self. This devotional is designed for Enneagram Fours, also known as the Individualist.
