Love and relationships
Loneliness
Feeling alone, even with people around, with the sense of having no one to share life with.
What the Bible can tell you
Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted.
Psalms 25:16
Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid or scared of them, for the LORD your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you."
Deuteronomy 31:6
Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, "I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you."
Hebrews 13:5
A human reading
Loneliness does not always mean being without people; sometimes it means feeling that no one understands us. The text reminds us that we are not abandoned, and that is a starting point. Reaching out to a trusted person or a community can help a lot.
This page offers reflection and companionship; it does not replace a professional. If what you feel weighs heavily or lasts for weeks, talk with someone you trust or with a health professional.
