Never Alone

Have you ever felt lonely? Have you ever been abandoned by your friends or family members? Being left out and left alone hurts.

Did you know you are never really alone if you know Jesus? He will never abandon you, because you are His and He loves you (Matthew 28:20; Hebrews 13:5). More than that, He is also living inside you by the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:9-11; 1 Corinthians 6:19; Ephesians 1:13-14). How awesome is that?

Colossians 1:27 says, “Christ in you, the hope of glory.â€

That means, even when everyone else around you has gone away, you still have the promise of the hope and presence of God right there with you. Whenever you start to feel alone, remember Jesus is already with you.

Whether you or another Christian you know is struggling with feeling alone, take time to pray. Ask God to remind you He is with you—close by no matter what you’re facing.

Even if you aren’t sure what to pray, you can pray a simple prayer like this: •Lord, even though I might feel alone, thanks for always being with me and for Your Holy Spirit living inside me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.* • Alexis Wohler

• Have you ever felt alone even though you knew God was with you? How did you feel after remembering God is living in you?

• How can you help yourself or others remember Jesus is always with His people?

To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Colossians 1:27 (NIV)
