Never Alone

Never Alone

Being a follower of God allows for the understanding that one is never alone.

1. You + God
2. You + Spouse
3. You + Spouse&Kids
4. You + Everyone Else (your neighbor Luke 10.33-37)

So as you can see, being 'alone' is really a term to mean being only with God. Evil goads us to believe that we're alone without God and just looks where that gets you. Consider the amount of depression, suicides, self-esteem problems and so forth that express the feeling of loneliness as a characteristic. How do you feel during times of stress or anxiety when you are "alone" (in the sense that you are ignoring God)? Is it a surprise then that while turning our back on God, ignoring or neglecting Him as our company when others aren't around, that we feel cold; ignored; abandoned; frightened; anxious; sad and/or depressed; with little or no hope; etc?
Kind of sounds like "hell" if you ask me. Oh wait, that's actually a descriptor of a place or status known as "Hell" that being a place "without God."
Encourage those in your circle of influence, try to be intentionally seeking them, thinking about them, caring for them. Don't let things like feeling awkward, stop you from asking someone you know if they're "OK" and furthermore making actual real efforts to get to know that person and not letting an "OK" be a sum-up of your relationship. Is "OK" good enough, really?  How many times have you been in the absolute DUMPS and yet told a passerby that you're OK, or worse yet that you're "good" when they asked how you were doing? We are all of us habitual liars and fakers.
Be Intentional, Be Real, and you will be Inspiring to others.
