I have a hard time accepting loneliness as a gift. I have a hard time accepting when Christians treat you like disposable garbage and then raise their hands and voices in praise of God. There is something terribly wrong about it. Something horribly unjust. Few Christians say anything about the lack of love and mercy in church. I praise God for all He's done- I love Him. But this loneliness is awful. I'm not garbage. When the world doesn't want you, and even Christians don't love you-- well...
@Lazarusrizing I agree with what you are saying. I have experienced what you are going through. I never said being lonely was an awesome experience. It sucks. But once you are no longer lonely and your life is filled with your own family, and their highs and lows, and all of the trials that come with children, you may look back and see that your lonely days weren't so horrible. Try to get really busy. Join a book club, swimming lessons, and keep the jerks out of your life. It will get better.
@grkike. Thank you for your patience. I apologize for my outburst. Of course, what you said to me were great suggestions. I know you didn't say loneliness was an awesome experience. I caught that from another comment on your board. I'm obviously going through a hard time right now, but the Lord's got me. I'm trusting Him for healing. He's been faithful. I magnify Him. Sometimes you just want to be heard. But I refrain. God bless you.
@Lazarusrizing Hi Lazarus, It is ok to get mad in your situation. I understand. We are always a work in progress. Some people say we shouldn't acknowledge our feelings, and just give praise. I think we should allow ourselves the fact that we are wounded, and like any wound it is going to take time to be healed and forgive. Thankfully, the pain won't last forever. Hang in there & get super busy. I will pray for you.Remember, Jesus got mad too!
@TheBarefoot4life Thank you for your idea. I agree. I bought two. Somehow, they became microphones for my kids...Perhaps it was after watching Hannah Montanah. I am saving up to get a new one that is operated by the touch of a button! Sony. I totally agree with you Barefoot! I need a tripod!
Thank you for sharing this message! I am feeling like i'm at the end of my rope right now, when all my friends around me are getting married and I'm still alone (and have been single for almost 5 years now). But this was definitely an encouraging message.
@Jsmooth7444 That's true, It can also be due to surroundings, and the way you are brought up. If you are socialized at an early age with other children, people...You can also decide to change, and be more social, less shy...If you choose to. It was a decision I made in High School. I was tired of being shy! I took drama and pushed myself out of my confort level.
I'm 51 and not-yet-married. You are SO right about your advice. God just ended relationship I had with a "Christian" man who talked the talk and didn't walk the walk and I ended up compromising my walk with the Lord. Before I knew it, I was over my head with insecurities. Anyone can go to church....few people really LOVE the Lord. Loneliness is a gift that opens me up to more of Jesus! Thank you!
I'm 40 and just experienced a bad break up. The heartbreak is really painful. I've all but given up hope for love-someone godly coming into my life, who would truly love me. But this video makes me think. Thanks for posting it.
Thanks, yes I will put it in his hands and leave it with him. I look forward to your new video and I am sure it will inspire and uplift me and so many others.
Thanks very interesting video and touching. I have been praying for these subjects so I am blessed by this video and know the Lord will bring the right one into my life and the right time. Blessings. QC xxxx
The Lord DEFINATELY has someone special for you! Don't look anymore and he is on his way. It always happens when you least suspect it. Don't even look for Mr. Right anymore and then the Lord will take over. Trust me! I will be posting an amazing story soon on this with two others that just fell in love recently. I am so happy that I was a part of their meeting eachother. They were both widows with children.
There are many young men like myself who grow up in a hood or ghetto area and are easily influenced to be like their street elders or do drugs because they lonely. I know now why I am who I am..Will you agree with me in prayer and pray for those who need proper guidance, or another chance for salvation? God provides for us as needed so im not looking for my Girl. I know she's out there . Maybe she'll find me ? remember psalm.23v.1 the lord is my shephard I SHALL NOT WANT. sincerely- Jeff
I appreciate your video on lonliness. I am a sinner who has renounced my sinful lifestyle . I am 19 yrs old and fairly handsome by the grace of God but i have rejected him over and over and now realize that after 7 years of weed smoking, I needed salvation.I sold drugs, I did robberies to get high, had the prettiest girlfriends, and lived how I wanted to. I had all my sinful desires fulfilled. Yet None of these things compare with the love of God . I knew the wrong I was doing and still did it.
I'm an atheist that hopes to meet another atheist female. I don't see why just loving the lord is seen as a positive prerequisite for a partner... around here there is a member of the clergy or youth minister that makes the headlines for a sex scandal about once a month.
There are many people that claim to be Christians but they are hypocrits. They cheat on their partners. If someone loves the Lord. They will be obedient to what the Lord expects and not be hypocrites. Gods word says do not be unequally yoked, and Love the Lord with all your heart. If you genuinely love the Lord, you must look for the same components in your partner. Otherwise there will not be a good foundation for your relationship. Thanks you for your thoughts.
Hello Laineyes, The Lord has someone special for you. I promise you that if you delight thineself in the Lord, the Lord will give you the desires of your heart. It is biblical. God did it for me and He will do it for you.

People are born shy (not always) and/or have a introverted personality. ie Extroverts and Introverts. (both are normal personalities)
