A holy man will…endeavor to set his affections entirely on things above, and to hold things on earth with a very loose hand. He will not neglect the business of the life that now is; but the first place in his mind and thoughts will be given to the life to come. He will aim to live like one whose treasure is in heaven, and to pass through this world like a stranger and pilgrim traveling to his home.

Debra,

You shouldn't feel like you are imposing with your church family concerning the
holidays. Is there a family who doesn't have any other family near. I was so
lonely for years during the holidays, our family is over 1000 miles away. It
would have been wonderful to spend time with someone else who's family was far
away. I have a close friend here who also doesn't have family near, and we have
spent special times together during holidays. Pray about it, perhaps God will
show you someone who needs your company.
Stay encouraged.

declares the Lord.
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts."
