Overcoming Loneliness – Dr. Charles Stanley

“It is not good for the man to be alone” (Genesis 2:18).

In the beginning, the first thing God declared bad was loneliness, and it still plagues humanity today. In this message, Dr. Stanley lays out a clear-cut path to overcoming this involuntary solitary confinement.

As a believer in Christ I too struggle with loneliness. I have been single for several years and it can be frustrating. I can only cry to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Prayers for all those who are struggling. 🙏

"When God stops you from a relationship, He is saving you from disaster." Amen.

Another cure for loneliness. Ask God to lead you to someone (maybe elderly) who's lonely and spend time with them
bringing sunshine into their day. Doing something for someone else will bring great joy and takes focus of off
ourselves.

For you who are single, I am married to a man who stopped sleeping in bed with me 7 years ago and now doesn't touch me at all. So even in a relationship some of us have the same lonely emptiness. I pray for you, please for me, for us.

Loneliness is painful. No one to hold and hug. An emptiness fills my heart.

100% I know this message is for me. God is speaking directly to me through this as this has been my major battle right now. I'm 19 and going through extreme loneliness as a college student who's Christian in Los Angeles of all places. Please pray for me.

EDIT: Just want to say thank you to everyone who has said they're praying for me even almost three years later. I'm 22 now. Although not perfect, things have changed tremendously for me. I now have brothers I'd take bullets for, direction and purpose in life and so much more thankful for.

“If anybody understood loneliness, Jesus did.” Straight up. A simple but powerful truth.

Loneliness has always gotten me into toxic relationships. I pray that I may feel Gods presence and embrace this season of being alone. In Jesus Holy name Amen.

It’s 5am in the morning. And I’m hurt. I’m feeling lonely. I can’t sleep more. Thank you for the video.

I feel so out of place in this world.... People don't understand my walk with God. The path is extremely narrow and lonely...I know others are on the same path but I don't see

God can put the right person in your life to help you thru hard times.

First time in my life I am struggling with this. I never minded being alone. I had many family and friends I could reach out to. But now, later in my life, most are gone. Deceased. My grandma, my aunt's, my mother, my best friend of 40 years, my former husband and father of children... many cousins... I am so lonely and feel so heart broken I cry so often. I just WEEP. I go to church and WEEP. Thank you for this video. Hugs to all you in the comment stream too. I needed to connect to this TRUTH. The devil is a liar, ya'll,

[lijonpichon]

I’m so down right now, I don’t know how I’m going to get out of this one. I can’t focus, I’m depressed I need God forreal. Pray for me please🙏🏽

[jeanetteterry]

I am 49 years old and true friendship has been hard to find even in the church. I am so thankful for King Jesus. He builds me up time after time. Stay hopeful and prayerful. Wait on God's timing and blessings for true friends. God bless you all.

I’m approaching 40. Never been married, never had kids. I’ve seen literally all my friends get married and have families and buy homes and go on vacations. I love Jesus with all my heart. I’ve been praying for years for a husband and family. But I stopped praying I’ve just completely given up. I’m always surrounded by women and families and believe it or not but it makes me feel worse. I know I’ll be a Bride in Heaven. My home is with Jesus in the Heavens. So exhausted from the heart break and disappointments. I’m ready to go home.

[donnaawb]

Our churches do not reach out to us anymore and it's heartbreaking

[Abyss]

In these times it's soo hard to find a good Christian friend.

[tammyrenee]

I love JESUS more than anyone
He's my best friend
But i still feel lonely at times

My husband of 38 yrs left me Nov, 2022 & my mother passed away April 2023…the 2 people I have had in my life the longest… I feel it in my entire body… stomach, muscles, bones, heart & mind…I’m 62… if I didn’t have the Lord with me through this…it would be far far worse, thank you Jesus that you’ll never leave me❤️🩸
