I think being alone can be a blessing. Especially if it’s used in the most constructive way: to grow spiritually, and perhaps heal emotionally.
Most of us are loving one another in our own wounded ways. Some are better at it than others. Some, sadly, are not able to love at all. If we look beyond our own pain to see what the other is experiencing – or has experienced – we can love as we’ve never loved before.
But it is getting to that point where we see the other’s need – and not our own – that is the hard part. And it usually takes One greater than ourselves to help us see it.
I would encourage everyone to take time to discover just how much you’re loved by the One who has put you here – who knows what you’re going through this very moment – and watch how His hand is on you throughout the rest of your lives.
And then, I promise you, though others may think you’re alone, in your heart you’ll know you’re not. In fact, you will never know a greater love. Even if He brings you that one you’ve been hoping for.
