ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM SHORT CORD SYNDROME?

Read: ISAIAH 54:1-3
Meditation verse:
“Enlarge the place of your tent and let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes” (Isaiah 54:2).

Some people live in such a way that the ‘tent’; of their lives have very little room for others. These people live in their own world. They are mostly alone with very few or no friends. They live life on a unilateral lane, moving only from their homes to their place of work and back to their homes. They have very few strong relational ties with their own family members and may not even have a spiritual
family that they fellowship with. They are not willing to put in the effort required to make and keep friends. These kinds of people are said to be suffering from “short cord syndrome” (SCS).

People with SCS are usually very critical of others. They disconnect from people at the slightest offence and burn every bridge in their lives. They have succeeded in ostracizing themselves from every relational tie. As a result, when afflicted, they suffer alone. Interestingly, people with SCS live in denial. They see nothing wrong with the way they live and tend to believe that others are to blame for
their short cords.

Are you suffering from SCS? You can be set free through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it to the full” (John 10:10, NIV). Jesus Christ can help you extend the tent of your life to accommodate several people- He can give you the wisdom needed to understand others, put love for people in your
heart and teach you relational skills so that you can connect easily with people.

He can direct you to a church family you will enjoy being a part of. Do you have a personal relationship with Him? Here’s a prayer you can say now: “Dear Lord, I am a sinner in need of grace Thank You Jesus for dying to set me free from sin. Please forgive me for all my sins and come into my heart. Be my Lord and Saviour. Fill me with Your Spirit and enable me to extend the tent of my life for others to come in. In Jesus name, Amen.
