Hollywood Prayer Network On LonelinessSample
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
"Loneliness is my least favorite thing about life. The thing that I'm most worried about is just being alone without anybody to care for or someone who will care for me." Anne Hathaway
“Loneliness is a wilderness, but through receiving it as a gift, accepting it from the hand of God, and offering it back to him with thanksgiving, it may become a pathway to holiness, to glory and to God himself” Elisabeth Elliot
PRAY: Oh God, I love it that You are empowering me all through the scriptures to be strong, bold, fearless, and never alone. I want to fully embrace your commands in this verse so that I stand up tall and strong in every situation, every conversation and even when alone in the dark. I praise You for never, ever leaving me or forsaking me. Amen
REFLECT: How humbling to realize that we are never fully living out the promises of God, even though we love Him, study His word, and follow Him. What will it take for you to truly be strong and courageous, never afraid and never alone? What can you do to believe from the bottom of your heart and soul that God NEVER leaves you or forsakes you? Can you feel His presence right now?
ACT: Commit this verse to memory. Write it on an index card and carry it around with you, reading it, memorizing it, and pondering it. Make it a part of you so that you slowly realize that you are stronger, you are actually more courageous, and you are never lonely. Keep saying this verse out loud and also quietly in your mind and heart until you are instinctively living it out in all circumstances.
