“Loneliness is not a time of abandonment. . . it just feels that way. It’s actually a time of encounter at new levels with the only One who can fill that empty place in our hearts.”
“Loneliness need not be an enemy…
it can be a friend.
Loneliness need not be an interruption in our lives…
it can be a gift.
Loneliness need not be an obstacle….
it can be an opportunity.
Loneliness need not be a problem …
it can be an opportunity.
Loneliness need not be a dead end…
it can be an adventure!”
