Because we are social creatures, humans cannot live in isolation. God created us as a family so that we might live together and express our emotions. We now have the opportunity of residing within the church family, where we are free to express our thoughts to one another.
But occasionally, we could experience a sense of loneliness. We must seek God’s direction during these particular moments when we experience such times in our lives. If we spend too much time with our friends and family, we won’t have time to meet God.
God creates this sense of isolation in our lives so that we will be open to hearing from him in order to speak with us. In the Bible, there are numerous instances of people who were alone. During these times, the Lord used them mighty and spoke to them.
We must seek the Lord’s face when we are in such a desperate position so that he can assist us in overcoming it through his great plans. We can grasp his thoughts by reading his words, and we will then be moved in accordance with his wishes.
Read and reflect on the Bible scriptures below to help you overcome loneliness.
