Lonely Life

Statistically speaking, it should be impossible to be lonely on planet earth. After all, there are more than 6 billion of us roaming around this planet.

But many people in our world are lonely. One of my friends told me that she has outlived every close relative or friend in her life. In her loneliness, she wonders why God allows her to remain. If you’re lonely, perhaps we can offer some encouragement. Using God’s Word, Discover how the following three actions can help ease your loneliness.

Learn Contentment: Philippians 4:10-13, then ask God to help you to depend on Him each day and learn to be content in any situation.

Do Good for Someone: Hebrews 13:1-3, then looks someone in need of help. You’ll get rid of loneliness for both of you.

Worship with God’s People: Hebrews 10:21-25, emphasizes the value of worshiping with other believers. Find someone with whom you can Praise God.

If you are feeling all alone lean for contentment. Help someone else. And worship God with other believers. These actions will redirect your thinking and remind you that when you know God you’re never alone.

“Many people are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges”

Worship

Why Worship?

Why sometimes that we have a difficulty going to church? Some would tell us that it’s better to sleep late on Sunday, eat a leisurely breakfast, and lounge around talking with the family. And then maybe have lunch with friends or enjoy a picnic and games with your brothers and sister. Make it a day that’s different and even restful, “some would say but don’t waste time by going to church on Sunday!”

Worship? Who do you needs worship anyway? We all do! We need worship because we are unique creatures made in the image of God. We are for God, so we can’t our purpose unless we develop a right relationship with Him. And worship helps us to do that when we focus on the Lord.

As we join with other worshipers in church, our hearts are lifted out of this temporal. World into God’s eternal world. According to William temple, in worship the conscience is quickened by holiness of God, the MIND is fed by the truth of God, the Imagination is purged by the beauty of God, the Hear is opened to the love of God, and the will is devoted to the purpose of God. And we are helped onward in our goal of becoming more like God. Let’s decide now that every Sunday we will be in church with heart prepared worship.
