Feeling lonely? How living with gratitude and service can end those feelings

The interesting thing is why we're so desperate

for this anesthetic against loneliness.

~David Wallace Foster

In the book of Genesis in chapter 2 verse 18 God spoke these words:

The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."

Perhaps times have changed, it seems more and more people tend to want to live alone.  The world has even changed to promote those who live alone.

Many families even because of work and school demands have the resemblance of single life.  They seldom get to send time together working opposite schedules they pass each other at the door.

So why is loneliness such a drag......

We were designed by God to live a life of service.  Service to each other and to share in our talents to perhaps make another persons life a bit easier.

Thats why some paint, draw, take pictures, write.  Others love to cook, bake, and share in life their skills in the kitchen.

People don't just go out to eat for simplicity they often do this to be connected in a public venue.

Some go out to drink, not just because they are thirsty, or want to numb their pain, but to become more social, relaxed among friends or even perfect strangers.

It is not desirable for man to be alone.

Oh it is ok.... not saying you can't live a productive life alone and single.  It just seems more enjoyable to live with a helper, a lover, or a partner.

Life is so short, you never know when the final buzzer will blow.

Unlike a sporting event there is not game clock we get to look up at.  Their is no two minute warning that says thats prepare for the end of our life.

It just ends one day.

So if you have that special someone cherish them.  Tell them you love them.  Share a funny story about the why.

And if your alone, don't despair.  God has a plan, a creation and a simple unexplainable way of putting love together.

Live your life of service.

Live your life with prayer.

Live your life with laughter.

You will never be alone with these things.  You'll never be alone.

May your day be blessed.

May your gratitude be over flowing!
