Has anybody ever asked you what it's like to be you? me neither. Some people may say i have a fairly easy and happy life, based on how i might try to fool the average person with my visible emotions. Truth is, nobody really knows me. Hell, i don't even fully know me. One thing is for certain though. My life is not easy. Have you ever had a girlfriend? Isn't it great? Having someone who loves you, and you love them back just as equally or more, and share many special moments with them> I wouldn't know that feeling. I've never had a girlfriend, and i don't have many friends either. so all those times where you might be doing something fun with your gf, i'm probably just sitting here, like i do, all day every day, wishing that i could be as lucky as you. Not too deep down, hidden just under the surface of all my fake smiles and half laughs, is a very lonely, depressed person who hasn't experienced the basic fundamentals of a relationship. some people might say that someone like me is lucky. i have an iPod, iPad, and mac. some people might say i'm lucky to be me, or they wish they were me so they could have all this cool stuff, but let me tell you. Never, Ever put material things before people. things can't give you happiness. People who you can spend time with and enjoy every second of it can make an immense amount of happiness. to anybody out there who has experienced this, i envy you. you are luckier than you could imagine. | |
This is exactly how i feel...And i don't know what to fucking do. It sucks man...Just like you people would say they'd "love to be me". And they have no idea that i've never been in a real relationship and I'm lonely as fuck, sitting around doing nothing. fml.
The Psalmist cried out, "No man cares for my soul." [Psalm 142:4]. He was experiencing the loneliness of isolation from other people, and the feeling that those around him were pursuing their own interests rather than showing genuine concern for his soul.
People are often pursuing their own interests and desires, but the lesson we must learn is that people are not our source. In the midst of your isolation, you can turn to Christ and discover that His love truly does satisfy. Jesus understands loneliness and rejection. He experienced isolation from people. Because he understands, he is able to bring acceptance and love.
Christ brings you love, acceptance, and intimate communion with the God of love. With Christ, you are not alone. He conquers your loneliness by coming to dwell within you. Loneliness is removed by the presence of the indwelling Christ.
There is precious communion with Christ, when a lonely person discovers that the love of Christ is real and satisfying. There is an old saying, "Blessed are the homesick, for they shall come home." Loneliness and isolation are signs of homesickness, which can only be healed by coming home to Christ.
Christ makes us whole. His love makes us whole, and out of the overflow of Christ's love within us we can then show love and compassion for those around us. Out of the overflow of His love and acceptance for you, which heals your loneliness, you can show love and caring towards those around you.
He knocks at the door of your heart; the presence of Christ is real. But He must be invited into your heart, into the center of your being.
Receive Him; receive His cleansing and forgiveness and love. Allow Him to have the control of your life in a genuine surrender, and His loving presence will fill you, removing loneliness and unrest. May the peace of Christ fill you now!
A Prayer of Surrender:
Dear Lord Jesus, please fill me with your love, and wash away all my sins. I surrender my heart and life to you. I ask you to receive me and make me whole.
Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins, to cleanse me and forgive me. Thank you for dying on the cross for me, to make me a child of God. I turn away from all my sins, with all my heart.
I receive you, Lord Jesus, as the Lord and Savior of my life. I ask you to rule in my heart and life from now on. I ask you to fill me with your loving presence, and guard me with your divine protection.
I ask you to strengthen me and help me, to live for you from now on. I ask you to fill me with love so that I can love other people with a pure love. Fill me with love so that I can love you with all of my heart.
Amen.
