Lately, I’ve come to the conclusion that God is a lot smarter than we think. He knows we are human, and all humans, whether you’d like to admit it or not, feel alone sometimes. We all take it differently. Some, when they feel alone, actually want to be alone. Others feel alone although they are in the middle of a room filled with people.
Recently, I saw someone on a Facebook group ask for prayers because she felt alone. Someone answered her and said, “You can’t feel alone if you believe in God”. I am going to disagree. Sometimes the world gets to us, and it makes us feel alone. However, instead of feeling guilty for feeling alone when you know God is always there, tell Him. Say, “God, today I feel really alone. Today I really need a hug. Today I just need to feel you”. Then, you have to pay attention because He always shows you He is around. With a song, or a memory, or a smile from a stranger. God is ALWAYS with us.
So, don’t drown in your loneliness, bring it to Him. Tell Him what you are feeling. Ask your guardian angel for a hug. There are people who care. Bring it up to your friends. They may not know it is happening but will help when they can, but God is always there. Don’t discard Him when you are feeling alone. He is the only one that can make you truly feel safe in the middle of a storm. So. yes, it is okay to feel alone. Just, don’t drown in that feeling because you never really are alone.
