You are not Alone...
Loneliness...I don't think there is a human being on this earth that has not experienced this emotion in their lifetime. This emotion can be felt if you actually are alone OR even when you are surrounded by lots of people. So though it is conducive when you are in an alone status, it certainly is not always reliant upon that state to show up!
I've read that people that talk to strangers in public are most likely to be lonely. So the next time you're with your Mom in a store and she holds you up because she yacking with strangers, give her a break will ya...she may just be lonely for some conversation, someone that will make small talk about the things you may consider mundane. So be patient! 😀
On a much more serious note, the cases where people meet strangers online and develop relationships, even to the point of sending them money and sharing all there personal information; even actually moving to a foreign country to be with them, are dangerous and are fueled by loneliness.
The other day I ran into someone that I had not seen in years and when I asked about her husband, she shared that she is now divorced. She shared about her journey these past few years and one of the things was about overcoming the fear of being alone. Thankfully she is doing well, but it was a process. Though abuse was not the issue in her case, people have remained in abusive relationships because they have a fear of being alone; sounds crazy but human emotions can be sensitive and easily persuaded negatively.
In the years that I have been a widow, many people have asked "How do you do it?" To be honest, at first I would get a little peeved and think "Well how do you think I do it?" 😀 but with God's Grace and more patience and understanding, I have come to know that people that ask this question are really sincere and want to know.
Someone once said that the word "alone" can mean "all-one". When you think of it, God really did make us "all-one". In the book of Genesis , God did give Adam a wife, Eve, and all the animals to keep him company, so He never intended for us to be alone, but He also created us to commune with Him. He is an ever-present God that is ALWAYS there when we find ourselves without people around or even those times when we are in the midst of a crowd or our families...and we feel alone. We CAN be "ALL-One" with Him, because He will never leave us, on that you can depend! If you are feeling lonely today know this, The Lord IS with you.
Whatever you may be going through, you are not alone. Trust Him today... let's pray... Father, we come to You today and even though we may feel alone, we trust that as You promised, You ARE with us. I pray today for every person that is reading this to begin to know that You are with them and as they go through this day let your Presence be manifested. Let them know that You have created them to be ALL-ONE with You, for You are an omnipresent and omniscience God, that You are everywhere and know ALL things and You desire to commune with us... amen ♥️
