Lonely
Have you ever been alone? I mean, really lonely? I suppose all of us from time to time, even in our Christian experience, have felt alone.
But this need not be the case. There is One who is always with us. It is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. He has promised, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:20). Later in Scripture, He says, “I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee” (Hebrews 13:5). The next time you feel that you are all alone, just remember what the Psalmist said: “Nevertheless I am continually with Thee: Thou hast holden me by my right hand. Thou shalt guide me with Thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory” (Psalm 73:23-24). Nothing can change that! We need never feel lonely!
I often feel lonely,
When I forget the Lord:
When I neglect my Jesus,
And fail to read His Word.
But when my heart remembers,
And hand in hand we walk,
I never then feel lonely,
With Jesus I can talk.
