I understand where you are coming from. I feel alone, I don't have to many friends. I feel like I don't fit in with anyone not even with people in church.
@@sandrakrys9262 and Christopher Tracy.....same here. Our enemy always wants us to feel we are the only ones who feel like this. Seeing all these comments helps with that.
I just recently moved to this area and didn't know anyone. Found a church to attend not far, attended the ladies' bible study every week for 6 months thinking I could make a friend there.....finally I reached out to one of the ladies who I thought would be good to talk to and opened my heart to her....still no one calls if I'm not there and they all interact with each other and I never get invited. This is very sad, low point in the body of Christ.
@@hokeypokeydoodledandy it's like that with me. I am so lonely. I often think what's wrong with me. I get so depressed. The friend I do have is married and have her own life. Others that I used to be friends with, I had nothing in common. The closer I got to my relationship with God and with the current events of the world we drifted apart. The church I go to, everyone has cliques or it's couples that hang out with each other. I feel so out of place. I volunteer in the nursery once a month, but other than that I feel so awkward. I pray to God and tell him how lonely I feel and ask for fellowship with others like me. I have tried to talk to people, but it goes nowhere. My kids have their own lives and are never around even though 2 live with me.
@@octaviousmckenzie2362 Gosh I can't even imagine...as much as I hate to be told this Christianese saying...keep holding to the faith, keep believing, keep praying. I will for you as well. There has to be a breakthrough somewhere soon.
Honestly I felt lonely even around my family. It's difficult for them to take time listening each other. No one takes time to understand each other. I don't know what to do, but I have my Faith in God
I’m in my 20s and I’m single. At first I used to rely on my ex relationship for EVERYTHING. And when we broke up I was going through so much anxiety, depression, panic attacks etc. it was a horrible month of no sleep and loneliness anxiety and sadness. He wouldn’t return my calls or respond to messages and in that time I learned to make Jesus my everything. I learned to rely on Jesus. Jesus completed me. So I’ve learned to not EVER seek completeness or joy from man; but rather from the Lord. I’m still growing in this but thankful for the revelation. I still go through loneliness because I wish I had genuine God fearing friends and support but I’m mostly alone. So I will take this time to fully immerse myself in Lord.
My loneliness has taught me to be strong. I knew that god had planned for me to be lonely because he wanted me to focus more on what he has planned for me.
Hi. I’m 49 and never been married and with only a small circle of friends. I’ve always been sort of a loner all my life and am uncomfortable in social events. Sometimes I am ok with being alone but as I get older, it’s getting harder to ignore the silence in my life. Thanks for your tips and will examine my life some more.
I feel like I'm in this same boat right now. My bf just broke up with me a little less than 2 weeks ago and I live with extended family whom I'm not close with. I don't know if it's just the emotions from my breakup but I've felt quite lonely the last almost 2 weeks. I'm really trying to keep my chin up but I wish I had my Mum, Dad and brothers here with me so I wouldn't feel all by myself. My friends also mostly live far away from me so I don't have that close support system I would like. I'm really trying to look up to God and trust that this is all part of a plan that he has to do something new in my life but it just such a trying season right now
Loneliness is definitely something that we ALL deal with in life...in different seasons and many different ways - just like you mentioned. (wanting a spouse, wanting friends...etc). You are so right! It is often a test but also a a sign that we need to REACH OUT just like you said! 👍
So interesting that we both released videos somewhat on the same topic on the same day. God is speaking to his people. Thanks Lorie and keep up the excellent work!
Lucky Luchiano well, I think it's very important to spend time with other believers. Even if you are a loner. God's word tells us how important it is to gather with other believers to encourage and be encouraged. The enemy wants to keep us secluded but that is not God's plan for us. We were created for relationship with the Lord AND with others. So that's where I would start. 😊
I know that I am not Lorie. But your question struck a chord. I"m pretty much a loner as well. Not that I don't like people or what to have friends to hang out with or even a special one to be all romantic and stuff with. But my work schedule always keeps me at odds with the schedule of others. I'm always working when they are off. Anyway, I have found that the more I get to know Jesus, the more I am ok with the process. I am ok being by myself because I am not alone. Once there, the rest, all the other relationships I have, are the gravy.... so to speak.
wow, everything said in this video is exactly how i am feeling right now. I am 47, never married, no children, and I am truly in a season of loneliness waiting to hear from God. But I will not give up.
Definitely going thru that right now especially since my mom recently passed away. I feel loneliness cause the loss of a mom is a pain like no other pain 💔. I ask for your prayers. God bless.
D Perez I know what you’re going through I lost my mom as well it’s a horrible feeling, seek God through Prayer and fellowship with other believers in Christ, you’ll be in my prayers
Please don't ever turn the comments off!! I think this is a help to all of us who feel lonely --- feeling connected and knowing we aren't the only ones going through it!
I just wonder why God makes it difficult for some of us to feel connections. The only thing i look forward to is sleep. I have no friends,no family moment and no time. I pray god helps us all to feel connection. Connection is important.
While all the suggestions sounds so helpful…when the depression and loneliness is so extreme, having the confidence to do activities and get involved with groups feels frightening and paralyzing. Waiting…tirelessly…for God to offer comfort and direction
@@mothermovementa NOPE brother! Jesus is GOD, but humans (as me and you) are NOT "gods" and never will be gods, but we will be with NEW GLORIFIED bodies (maybe as the angels of Jesus). The mormons are LOST and need many prayers in the NAME of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (JESUS)! God bless you!
Omg!! The spirit hit me with this. God has removed people and distractions out of my life in January. I'm thankful he did because they were very toxic, negative, and did hurtful things to me. Now, I'm more than ever focused on God.
Im a Christian a senior just had rotator cuff surgery. Thank God for shows like yours which is very good keep doing God's work mama long Greenville texas
Sharon Long Hey Mama! 😀 I was scheduled for an mri for my shoulder today, I'm praying I can get away with physical therapy. I'm going through a season myself. I just wanted to remind you that your purpose here is not finished. When it is, you've got a brand new body, and friends and family waiting. Until then, keep fighting! God Bless! 😊
Great video! I needed this. I am married and very lonely. After I take care of the children, work and the household, I'm alone...No conversation, dates, support, building anything...I grew up and he did not....I can't do much for myself because he makes it hard for me to have time or funds. He doesn't help with the kids....report card conferences, appts, etc. I do everything!!!!! even household fixes. I'm torn but I trust God would help me...I no longer feel his love or interest. it's painful. he wasn't always like this and doesn't care that he's hurting his family...The children and I. I would pour my heart out with no response or a mean one, I'd write a letter and he will never bring it up...when I do, he says, oh you needed a response... smh I thank you for this video! God Bless
As I have no family, friends or a spouse, this season is lifelong. I'm just trying to find a way to not feel lonely even though I'm always going to be alone.
Same boat here brother. Never been in a relationship. I been thinking about why this is, if we have multiple relationships over the years they start to become shallow and not as deep as they should be. But when God does bring that one special person into your life, your gonna be in the mindset that God wants you to be. Faithful, absolutely devoted, caring, tender-hearted, just keep going, keep reading the word and relying on God, He hasn’t forgotten you, He wants the best for you, trust His timing, He cannot fail.
@@kvernon1 that's rude everyone hates being celibate especially when you're getting thru an ordeal of a breakup of loss of a loved one please don't compare like that
Mr Parr can you pray for my daughter who is experiencing loneliness. She is a teen and she is a good daughter. I cry for her not having friends her own age. She tries to reach out, but whenever she thinks she has a friend it turns out not to be. I try to believe that GOD is rooting out all the bad ppl that can come into a person's life. I hope and pray she makes a friend or two when high school goes back to in person learning. Please pray for her and other ppl who are dealing with loneliness, especially young ppl who don't get high or drink to belong. AMEN and thank you.
Amen brother going through this season right now and I knew this was the Lord wanting to spend time with me your video was a confirmation... Thank u for being obeident to the Holy Spirit.
Been going through this all my life and now it is the same with my daughter. Plz pray for me and her, especially my daughter. She is still in grammar school and I don't want her to go through depression. Plz pray. Thank you.
Thank you for this video, it came at the perfect time. I’m a baby Christian; my life has gone through many changes and I’ve been feeling lonely, it’s been difficult at times for me.
If you're a new Christian then you're in the right place. Have you snagged my free eBooks yet? If not, please head to my website allenparr.com and start reading those. They will help you better understand the Bible. And, if you're interested I have a course that teaches people how to study the Bible. It will also give you access to our private FB group where I'll be hosting weekly bible studies, bible study training and all sorts of other support. For more info go to biblestudymadeez.com. I understand your loneliness. As I said, I spent many years struggling with it. It's normal and natural.
This is a very good take on how loneliness is. Maybe God is trying to tell me I need to be alone for awhile to get ready for being with somebody. Thank the Lord for friends that helped me to get through this loneliness. But God has a plan.
Been BEGGING God for a wife for nearly TWENTY YEARS! Not only have I done everything that I know to do in order to grow closer to God; volunteering at church functions, studying the Bible, giving money and time to the church, praying, begging, pleading for an end to my loneliness. Still so alone and rejected no matter what I do. So ready for an end to this misery.
@@johnhaleii208 maybe we tend to overestimate our faith ... you may not get a wife in this life or maybe you will. Take the time to look at your life and ask yourself am I putting God first in every situation. Gods timing is perfect it’s important to understand you don’t need anyone else God is more then enough because God is love . Maybe God is trying to teach you “love me first” . God wants a real strong relationship with you maybe it’s a test of faith but all Ik is hang in there Bc the sec u give up could be the sec you could’ve had it all. Romans 8:18 // “The pain that you've been feeling, can't compare to the joy that's coming.” Just re check your situation, there is So much more to life than a women . Also you can’t expect to change and grow if you not doing anything different . Try going out more and learning more self love. If you’re need any prayers let me know, God bless your and may we meet again in another life ✝️💛.
@@taliyahford3346 for many years I did everything for God's sake. God has blessed me in other ways, but I have found that the more fervently I pray for something, the less likely there is to be a response. Only growing desire and dwindling hope.
If we feel lonely, remember the way you treat God YAHWEH is how you will treat your spouse or friends or anyone you ever have any relationship with. Thats why if you treat God Yahweh like your supposed to, you will never truly be lonely because you will constantly be remembering him and be in an infinite prayer/meditation with him. So talk to him like how Paul said, in constant prayer! And do like how Solomon recommends and honor him in EVERYTHING.
Praise God. I try to hear from God every week. I was between releasing this and another video. I'm so glad I went with this one. People are struggling.
Deborah, I really can understand the extended loneliness, but let's focus on Jesus and not let the enemy have the victory over us. Let's all pray for each other! We ARE loved - by our Lord.
Thank you for this message. It somehow just popped up in my RUclips feed even though I've been subscribed for a while. I'm married and alone. And it's a lot worse than being single and alone I can guarantee it. I used to sit at church and dream what my future would be like with a mate at my side who I can talk to for hours, go to church with, ect. My husband refuses to listen to anything I have to say. We barely talk. And when we do, he takes everything badly. It's extremely frustrating and tiring. Singles, trust the Lord fully and completely in your lonely stages. Get more involved in church. Reach out to other friends, have fun. Marriage is not always everything you need it to be, but Jesus always is.
God will restore your marriage I recommend seeking help and guidance from Focus On the Family. They have a ton of resources for married couples and can guide you in the right direction. I will pray for you. Pray for your husband God can change his heart. Remember the good days and why you got married in the first place don’t give up ❤️🙏🏻
I feel so lonely. Constantly asking myself, what is wrong with me, for me to not be able to keep a connection. I know rejection is God’s protection, but man… I wish could just have one person to talk to about everything
This popped up on my feed at the perfect time, I'm struggling with a recent fallout with my girlfriend. Holding fast to the knowledge that so long as the Lord is with us we are never alone. Praise Jesus!
God bless you brother, I've been alone for 3 yrs & I enjoy it. I'm a single mom of four & need to focus on them & the Lord. I know a man should be the head of household & I pray God does send me a kind God fearing man. But I'm @ peace because the Lord takes care of us.
I like what you said about taking the time to build your relationship with God. If he is supposed to be first in our lives, then, part of the solution to loneliness is by developing this first and most important friendship, and then you do become less alone as you wait for the other relationships to develop. And you will also be in a healthier place in which to develop those other ones.
Praise the Lord for this video, im going through this season now. This just uplifted my spirit. Hebrews 3:13= But continually encourage one another everyday, as long as it is called today. God Bless you Brother Parr
I struggle with loneliness so much, not a boyfriend girlfriend thing but a desire to be close to people have someone to talk to. I desire unsexual intimacy. I like to be close to people. I want to be able to talk to someone for hours on end that I can fall asleep with/wake up with. It sounds like a relationship but I don’t want anything sexual. I just want to feel loved. This loneliness feels like I’m drowning alone. I often feel alone even when I’m around people.
Hey, I know this sounds cheesy, but no feeling is finale. God Loves you more than humans can ever comprehend. Your not alone because he's always there, even when we don't feel it. When you mentioned wanting to talk to someone hours on end, it kinda reminds me of how I pray. I'm getting a little side tracked but when I pray, I usually tell him everything and it's like a conversation between friends. Desire to be close to him and loneliness will not bother you as much bc that's what happened to me. Do you have an Instagram? I'm asking bc you can Dm me if you want to talk about anything :)
I am about to go through what I think is going to be 2 years of loneliness. I have so much faith that this is just going to be a season, and like you said, God has something for me on the other side, also I am going to work hard these two years and stay faithful in Jesus, but man, it’s hard. I already have thoughts that I’m going to feel so lonely without my friends and especially the one who I feel is very, very close to me. I don’t want a spirit of fear with the feeling of loneliness, but I still have these thoughts that I’m not going to see these people (pretty much) ever again. Thank you so much for making these videos, you explain things perfectly, and you are a true man of God.
I've been thru YEARS of loneliness. I got away from an abusive marriage and since then (10 years ago ) I have been suffering from chronic illness and isolation. I don't know how to let Him love me thru this. I'm SOOO discouraged. I try to give all my burdens to Him. I don't have the energy to go out and socialize. It seems like this is all there is😢
While this quarantine and coronavirus is going on it’s tough for everyone. Get in contact with a church and find like-minded friends through church etc.There’s always hope.
@@austincrook8430 many people in churches do not understand chronic illness, especially if it doesn't show. It can be exhausting just to shower, dress, and then to show up. So much prayer is needed. The right doors do open.
Thank you for the encouraging words, Allen. It really helps to hear this during troubling times in one's life. To hear this from someone who even went through such difficult periods himself is really uplifting. The fact that you know of these issues firsthand is why your explanation is spot on and feels really genuine. I will take your advice to heart and I am sure it will help me get through this phase in my life. God bless you!
You don't know about this dude, but last night I was really depressed about a girl that I am kind of afraid to invite (friendship request) due to rejection, eventhough we'll be traveling together to a foreign country soon. I've been single all of my life now (25 years old at the moment) and don't get me wrong, I am not some ugly dude or whatever, it's just that I don't get these girls. And I just seen your video now about this very issue ( loneliness ) and I believe it is God who spoke to me through you. It can't be a coincidence, it just can't be. Ever since I've started receiving visions through dreams from the beginning of 2015 (eventhough I'm a christian since birth), it can't be a coincidence on how the very next day after my strong depression I just saw your video. I've been struggling with loneliness all of my life and last night was one of those moments that I had such a... hard time dealing with this. Anywho, thank you so much for this video man. I really do believe God spoke to me through you, so God bless you and your family!
Maybe I can encourage you too, friend. Eventually I sent her an invitation and when she accepted, we've talked for a while but she stopped, as if she wasn't even interested. This is the time when I finally said to myself -> It's over, I am tired of this. Because I have spent almost my entire life so far trying to be accepted by other people, especially finding a nice girlfriend. If you just think about it, why do we waste so much time on people and other crap when we can actually focus on OURSELVES and God? Didn't The LORD tell us that being a friend of the world is an emnity with Him? If you just think what actually a 'friend of the world' means, it's exactly that... chasing other people, trying to fit in the 'social club' and basically doing things that God is not approving at all. I am happy to tell you that I've stopped doing all of this and started focusing on God and myself trying to build a career. And I can't describe you the freedom I am feeling right now, as it says in John - "The truth will set you free". The path will not be easy, but if we stay on course we will get there eventually. So, I pray and hope that you find that same freedom. Being lonely and rejected is actually a big blessing because this way God allows us to focus on Him and ourselves and build the lives we are meant to. God bless you brother and stay strong!
Mhm, there are always going to be hardships, but that's how we develop a strong character as The Bible also states in a couple examples: “Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.” - Timothy 2:3 "That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:" - 1 Peter 1:7 There is always going to be trippings on the way, but the important thing is to get back up and NEVER give up. I know that this is all easy on words, but if we do not put any action, then we have no power. Otherwise, how can someone expect the Word of God to have any power if he/she does not use it? Only by putting the words into action we will have the power to overcome anything. But we are also children of God and sometimes we will fall, but only by getting back up we will mature. Of course I wouldn't mind trying to find a partner, but we should not put our full attention to it. Our full attention should be focused on God, ourselves (personal lives - character, career etc.) and helping other people when possible and everything else will be alright. I also have my own personal plan for success: - Consistency - Hard work - Endurance - Patience And remember that failure always leads to success, no matter in what area of your life you are finding yourself in, as long as you are consistent, work hard and be patient that your time will come eventually. You've probably heard the saying "Hard work always pays off"? -> It's true. God bless and I pray that these words are encouraging enough to give you hope. Take care!
Allen, Thank you so much for this video. I know it was a long time ago when you didn't have many subs, But I'm glad you stayed encouraged throughout to stick to this ministry. These videos will be here forever and will help so many more just like me who are struggling with this. Thank you so much for being here
I am so happy to hear this and watch this video. I am now in my loniness season. I could not understand from God why. So i ask to God :" Abba heavenly father , do i miss a piont in this. Because i feel loniness now , so what do i miss ". So i search up on RUclips , got to see Allen Parr on this video. So now i can understand why God allow me the season off loniness. Thank you so much , Allen Parr ☺️🌈🙏
I am in that season right now. The Lord called me into ministry a few years ago and I’ve been preparing, going deep into my word, and the Lord has tested me so much. It’s hard! But I will get through this season in Jesus name.
Thank you for this video.. especially that last reminder "it's just a season.. God has something else on the other side". I feel like God wants me to draw closer to Him, but I've been slacking 😔. I pray He gives me the desire to spend more time with Him.
I know I'm three years late....but I need this....we all need this...😏 It's very hard humans are not meant to be alone ALL OF THE TIME. For me personally, I've had to do a lot of ' keeping my thoughts ' in check because loneliness can play havoc with your mental health! And JESUS really REALLY is the one to turn to during this time as with other times too.....sometimes I've thought JESUS has forgotten me 😢 but he truly hasn't. 🤗🤗🤗 Yep.... I've felt great loneliness...but I'm not alone ! 🙏😊💚
You're so right....intense, long loneliness can be that - our enemy wants to use it to destroy us. Let's keep focusing on Jesus and some day soon we'll all be really together, no more loneliness in heaven.
I know this is a year old video , but i needed this so much i find myself feeling lonley i moved out of state for a job and i don't hace anyone no family no friends most days im fine but it comes in waves thank you so very much for sharing thia video it has helped alot
I completely relate to your situation I moved to Florida for nursing school and I am completely alone down here sometimes I wonder if I need to go back on medication for depression
I recently moved to Florida also and I have no friends. Just work and back home . I am fine most times but some days I get sad bc I don’t have family or friends around I trust that it will get better Have faith ❤️💕
I am tired of being lonely and being my own village. My family is broken and I wished I had support. I wish I had memories of good times instead all I remember is toxicity and abuse. It’s really sad. This is a sad season and it’s been going on for years..
God Bless you to the fullest extent man I truly belive God is speaking through you. This video helped me so much! I have been going through a season of loneliness and knowing that this is a time to develop myself, talk to God, and reach out encouraged me. I now understand that clearly this is for a reason that something bigger is coming up quickly and he is preparing me for it. I have no idea what it is but I pray that I learn and am ready. Thank you
I've felt like this plenty of times. I just wanna take the time to get closer to God. And later on in his time that blessing will come. Just take the time out to get closer to God get to know him. Maybe that's the time u need to build a relationship with him. Now God has delivered me out of messy situations and I thank god for that hes made a way even I couldn't see a way. And when I think back on that I cry at times but then i smile and say thank u lord. Lord I know that was u. The lord is good and all the time he IS GOOD. I'm never alone that's how I look at it jesus is there with me. Watching over me keeping me from the dangers of this world seen and unseen. Just need to take the time to get to know God he wants u to have a close relationship with him he wants u to get to know him. He wants YOU. He doesnt always give you want you want but he gives you what you need. And that is something to give the lord full thanks for. When my mother died I felt the whole world crumble on me and I felt like life was over . Because my mom whom I loved so much and lost at the age of 16 I didn't know how I was gonna pull through. I turned to any and everything but God only to find I wasn't satisfied. I was lonely plenty of times I had no friends to talk to really and those times I could've went to God but I didn't. Instead I went to other things. But then I had to stop and think wait, what am I doing. I wasn't raised like this my mama took me to church and taught me of God and I've heard it all around me ever since. Here I'm 23 years old I gave my life to God, and this time I plan on sticking with him. I say this plenty of times we get lonely but the lord is there and hes always ready to give a lending hand. How we are so grateful to have the lord who understands how it feels to be alone. But we're not. He is everywhere no matter where u are. He cares. God bless each and every soul and always show love 💕
I'm 31 years old and all my friends that are Christian guys are either married or have a girlfriend. I am single. I rarely ever talk to my Christian guy friends anymore and they have not even reached out to me at all. When I would talk to them, they didn't seem interested in talking to me. It has been over a year since I have spoken to most of them or seen them. If I texted them, they would either respond days later or just say no. I even was told by an older married man that married people do not like hanging around single people and that statement is very true. My married friends (or not friends anymore) don't even acknowledge me anymore. I have made some friends but most of them are gay men. I honestly do not even want to go to church anymore cause its full of married people with their kids and nothing for singles. I would rather watch the sermon online and not have to step foot in a church. Its worse feeling alone with a bunch of people around you than feeling alone in your own house.
The struggle is very real and unfortunately married people are also human beings whose plates are full. I also have my fair share of alienation. "Single" are labelled as undesirable. But chin up! God never leaves you nor forsakes you
Can’t wait for this long season to pass. I have been single 9 years and have struggled. This sounds bad but I’ve really disliked this time, most of the time. Lord only knows when this will end.
Loneliness can be overwhelming at times😢 but am taking this time to love myself and put me first because all my life i always make sure others are okay now it's mine turn they all gone but God sees and He know how am feeling he will strengthen me
I was talking to a girl and today she said she was done talking to me, ended on a bad note because I was confused and asked why. But she was the last string left to cut for me to be in a state of solitude. It’s time to strengthen my faith and relationship in god!
Growing up I never had many friends, I suffered from depression for many years and my therapist prescribed Zoloft , now at 25 I'm in a state with no family finishing up my RN degree. The only thing that has stopped me from committing suicide is the fear of going to hell
I was prescribed Zoloft too. I’ve felt the same fear of hell and I’ve also suffered from depression and anxiety. Let God’s hope in. It’s hard but we’re all here to help each other. You got Xbox?
Thank God for your wisdom and for sharing that wisdom. Loneliness is difficult but it is comforting that know that God has a purpose and a plan in the midst of it all.
I was a caregiver and son and friend to my mom,I had my stepfather,not the friendliest but ok,and one older brother who was mentally ill.He died in nov 2016,then my stepfather and Mom both died within two months of each other in 2018.man,it’s so lonely now.I do have a daughter and two grandchildren in another State,but she is not a believer and not very open to be one.It compounds the loneliness.Thanks for listening
Wow!! Thank you so much... I needed this message.. I'm in my season of solitude.. I want to be married and been anxious lately... Been feeling lonely.... Thank you for sharing that you to was in your season of solitude.... You don't really hear this being minister... Wow I so needed this word.... God bless you even the more with his wisdom & his knowledge.
Hi Buitiful I was reading your comment an that hit home as well take your time don't rush it I know how I feels. I'm a Christian allso. My wife passed 2 years ago I haven't seen or talked to anyone it's hard to trust these days 25five years with her me an my two daughters just pray their 14 & 16 I thank God They are good girls so with that just be careful time is good for Jesus 😇😇😇😇
Mike Turner Hi! I'm so sorry for your lost... May the LORD continue to comfort you during this tough season in your life. I pray GOD fill you with his peace, love and joy. May GOD continue to grace you to raise your precious daughters to Glorify GOD.... May GOD fill all loneliness with his present and with his peace. Just remember ....it just a season.... It will pass..... God bless you richly.... Thank you
It is sooo hard tho😭😭😭 im not perfect but im doing my best... Even in keeping busy I still feel loney sometimes. I can attest to the fact that all that you have mentioned does help, its just every now and then the feeling does arise, tears fall, the mind has questions, the heart feels like its breaking.
Bro thank you for meaningful n important msg... Bt still practically very difficult only God knows tht pain... Specially in spite of being married...n feeling lonely in many areas...
Thank u for really for giving me understanding on why it feels so long I'm waiting on God to bless me with my Queen and the devil been trying to steal that blessing from me so thanks for that message
Allen once again one of your video went on the perfect time, very very very perfect timing with one verse, god talked to me and revealed to me something today while watching your video. He revealed to me a verse (that is in your video) as a prophecy 2 months ago, and I didn't know what to think about it, I tried to find an interpretation for it. At the second where I saw the verse in your video right now, I've got a text from someone that made the verse come to life and have its full perfect meaning, confirmed by the holy spirit. Just wow. He planned it 2 months ago, just mind blowing hehe!! Again, god is using you in ways you probably don't even suspect, this is why I'm writing this comment to let you know and let other people know how god can act in your life, thank you for your ministry.
You're speaking to my soul right now 😁 I'm the lonely senior. However by God's grace I'm not depressed about it. However I do wish I could go on a occasional date.. I honestly pray that he's preparaing me for marriage in my old age 😁 In the meantime I'm enjoying my season of solitude by truly appreciate discovering who I'm . Can I tell you it's a beautiful journey 🙏😁🙏 Glory to God 🙏
It’s a horrible feeling it’s like an inner emptiness we may be surrounded by people and still feel lonely, we all as believers go through times of despair, loneliness, anxiety , depression, I’ve learned to put my trust in God only seeking him in prayer reading his word and fasting which will give us strength and perseverance and also fellowship with other Christ believers
It is hard to be alone, but we need this period to grow closer to God and work on ourselves for the coming season. For my part, I know I need to focus on my purpose.
It's not about having a boyfriend or girlfriend. I just want someone to talk to.
Fellowship would be a better word...
@@jimsmith9981 I agree.
Me too
@@tmhismybanner4498 thanx
same man same 👍🏻
Lonliness isn't only caused by lack of spouses. Friendships also play a central role.
I just want a friend, I’m so tired of being left out and overlooked. Life feels so meaningless
I understand where you are coming from. I feel alone, I don't have to many friends. I feel like I don't fit in with anyone not even with people in church.
@@sandrakrys9262 and Christopher Tracy.....same here. Our enemy always wants us to feel we are the only ones who feel like this. Seeing all these comments helps with that.
I just recently moved to this area and didn't know anyone. Found a church to attend not far, attended the ladies' bible study every week for 6 months thinking I could make a friend there.....finally I reached out to one of the ladies who I thought would be good to talk to and opened my heart to her....still no one calls if I'm not there and they all interact with each other and I never get invited. This is very sad, low point in the body of Christ.
@@hokeypokeydoodledandy it's like that with me. I am so lonely. I often think what's wrong with me. I get so depressed. The friend I do have is married and have her own life. Others that I used to be friends with, I had nothing in common. The closer I got to my relationship with God and with the current events of the world we drifted apart. The church I go to, everyone has cliques or it's couples that hang out with each other. I feel so out of place. I volunteer in the nursery once a month, but other than that I feel so awkward. I pray to God and tell him how lonely I feel and ask for fellowship with others like me. I have tried to talk to people, but it goes nowhere. My kids have their own lives and are never around even though 2 live with me.
@@sandrakrys9262 we will keep praying for each other, and some day soon will meet and rejoice in heaven with Jesus!
It’s so hard to be alone... this season has been 11 years now. I’m seriously over it!!!
Deserie Drew hi
Facts...me too
Wow I've been really hit by for the last 2 weeks. I don't know that i could do that for 11 years😩😩
Prayed for you✝️❤️🙏🏾
@@octaviousmckenzie2362 Gosh I can't even imagine...as much as I hate to be told this Christianese saying...keep holding to the faith, keep believing, keep praying. I will for you as well. There has to be a breakthrough somewhere soon.
Honestly I felt lonely even around my family. It's difficult for them to take time listening each other. No one takes time to understand each other. I don't know what to do, but I have my Faith in God
This is one I relate to the most
I’m in my 20s and I’m single. At first I used to rely on my ex relationship for EVERYTHING. And when we broke up I was going through so much anxiety, depression, panic attacks etc. it was a horrible month of no sleep and loneliness anxiety and sadness.
He wouldn’t return my calls or respond to messages and in that time I learned to make Jesus my everything. I learned to rely on Jesus. Jesus completed me. So I’ve learned to not EVER seek completeness or joy from man; but rather from the Lord. I’m still growing in this but thankful for the revelation.
I still go through loneliness because I wish I had genuine God fearing friends and support but I’m mostly alone. So I will take this time to fully immerse myself in Lord.
Same im alone as well. No godly friends...just me. Idk why.
If you want we can email and encourage each other
Beloved Bee yes let’s email I would love to have friends on the same page as myself please send your email adress
I hope you push through your struggles and embrace God even further!
@@kikikiki8436 what is your email? Believers should stick each other. And encourage one another.
My loneliness has taught me to be strong. I knew that god had planned for me to be lonely because he wanted me to focus more on what he has planned for me.
Yes!
This is old but please capitalize the G in God.
Wasn't there another way?
Hi. I’m 49 and never been married and with only a small circle of friends. I’ve always been sort of a loner all my life and am uncomfortable in social events. Sometimes I am ok with being alone but as I get older, it’s getting harder to ignore the silence in my life. Thanks for your tips and will examine my life some more.
I hope your doing well Zeke
I’m so tired of being lonely
Why are u loney u r bueitiful miketurner@ gmail.com God bless you
Alone or lonely?
Me too
God Bless you!
I feel like I'm in this same boat right now. My bf just broke up with me a little less than 2 weeks ago and I live with extended family whom I'm not close with. I don't know if it's just the emotions from my breakup but I've felt quite lonely the last almost 2 weeks. I'm really trying to keep my chin up but I wish I had my Mum, Dad and brothers here with me so I wouldn't feel all by myself. My friends also mostly live far away from me so I don't have that close support system I would like. I'm really trying to look up to God and trust that this is all part of a plan that he has to do something new in my life but it just such a trying season right now
Loneliness is definitely something that we ALL deal with in life...in different seasons and many different ways - just like you mentioned. (wanting a spouse, wanting friends...etc). You are so right! It is often a test but also a a sign that we need to REACH OUT just like you said! 👍
So interesting that we both released videos somewhat on the same topic on the same day. God is speaking to his people. Thanks Lorie and keep up the excellent work!
Lorie Brumfield I've became a real loner. Any tips as to what's worked for you?
THE BEAT by Allen Parr I thought that was interesting too!! Thank you! Same to you!!
Lucky Luchiano well, I think it's very important to spend time with other believers. Even if you are a loner. God's word tells us how important it is to gather with other believers to encourage and be encouraged. The enemy wants to keep us secluded but that is not God's plan for us. We were created for relationship with the Lord AND with others. So that's where I would start. 😊
I know that I am not Lorie. But your question struck a chord. I"m pretty much a loner as well. Not that I don't like people or what to have friends to hang out with or even a special one to be all romantic and stuff with. But my work schedule always keeps me at odds with the schedule of others. I'm always working when they are off. Anyway, I have found that the more I get to know Jesus, the more I am ok with the process. I am ok being by myself because I am not alone. Once there, the rest, all the other relationships I have, are the gravy.... so to speak.
I don't care about having a lover honestly. I just simply want someone who I can talk to. That's all.
Hey I usually talk to God not just by speaking yk but by writing to God and praying over it like a letter friend it's fun!
I'm going through loneliness right now. And i know that god is preparing me for my life purpose.
wow, everything said in this video is exactly how i am feeling right now. I am 47, never married, no children, and I am truly in a season of loneliness waiting to hear from God. But I will not give up.
Definitely going thru that right now especially since my mom recently passed away. I feel loneliness cause the loss of a mom is a pain like no other pain 💔. I ask for your prayers. God bless.
D Perez I know what you’re going through I lost my mom as well it’s a horrible feeling, seek God through Prayer and fellowship with other believers in Christ, you’ll be in my prayers
I’m so sorry...I’m keeping you in my thoughts and prayers 😔
🙏
May the Heavenly Father God and Lord Jesus wrap there arms around you.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@warwick170 may the Heavenly Father God and Lord Jesus wrap there arms around you.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you! I am struggling with losing friends and being lonely!
Please don't ever turn the comments off!! I think this is a help to all of us who feel lonely --- feeling connected and knowing we aren't the only ones going through it!
I just wonder why God makes it difficult for some of us to feel connections. The only thing i look forward to is sleep. I have no friends,no family moment and no time. I pray god helps us all to feel connection. Connection is important.
While all the suggestions sounds so helpful…when the depression and loneliness is so extreme, having the confidence to do activities and get involved with groups feels frightening and paralyzing. Waiting…tirelessly…for God to offer comfort and direction
thank youuuuu, really needed thissss
You're welcome Eboni Taylor! Thanks so much!
I actually love you. Is mormonism ok?
@@mothermovementa NOPE brother! Jesus is GOD, but humans (as me and you) are NOT "gods" and never will be gods, but we will be with NEW GLORIFIED bodies (maybe as the angels of Jesus).
The mormons are LOST and need many prayers in the NAME of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (JESUS)! God bless you!
Sidney Heyuri thank youuuu❤️💕✨
Hope life goes great soon!
Omg!! The spirit hit me with this. God has removed people and distractions out of my life in January. I'm thankful he did because they were very toxic, negative, and did hurtful things to me. Now, I'm more than ever focused on God.
Im a Christian a senior just had rotator cuff surgery. Thank God for shows like yours which is very good keep doing God's work mama long Greenville texas
Sharon Long Hey Mama! 😀 I was scheduled for an mri for my shoulder today, I'm praying I can get away with physical therapy. I'm going through a season myself. I just wanted to remind you that your purpose here is not finished. When it is, you've got a brand new body, and friends and family waiting. Until then, keep fighting! God Bless! 😊
God bless you Sharon. Thanks for sharing this,
Great video! I needed this. I am married and very lonely. After I take care of the children, work and the household, I'm alone...No conversation, dates, support, building anything...I grew up and he did not....I can't do much for myself because he makes it hard for me to have time or funds. He doesn't help with the kids....report card conferences, appts, etc. I do everything!!!!! even household fixes. I'm torn but I trust God would help me...I no longer feel his love or interest. it's painful. he wasn't always like this and doesn't care that he's hurting his family...The children and I. I would pour my heart out with no response or a mean one, I'd write a letter and he will never bring it up...when I do, he says, oh you needed a response... smh I thank you for this video! God Bless
Sis... I can undstd ur pain... I m sailing in the same boat.. But trusting n depending on the Lord..
Ladies sorry you all are going through what you 2 have stated. I’m wishing you 2 God’s strength and safety...
Hope it got better for you
I've been in that boat for over 36 years. Nothing has changed. BUT Jesus Christ never changes!
As I have no family, friends or a spouse, this season is lifelong. I'm just trying to find a way to not feel lonely even though I'm always going to be alone.
We all need to pray for each other.
Do you need someone to talk to? send me your whatsapp
💔
I’ve been single my entire life, I’m 26 and it’s heartbreaking. I just don’t understand why god won’t bring this in my life
Same boat here brother. Never been in a relationship. I been thinking about why this is, if we have multiple relationships over the years they start to become shallow and not as deep as they should be. But when God does bring that one special person into your life, your gonna be in the mindset that God wants you to be.
Faithful, absolutely devoted, caring, tender-hearted, just keep going, keep reading the word and relying on God, He hasn’t forgotten you, He wants the best for you, trust His timing, He cannot fail.
Im 28 got out an 8 year one didnt end so well it sucks.
You're heartbroken because you are still single at 26? Wow. Just imagine being twice that age. Then I'll have some sympathy for you.
@@kvernon1 that's rude everyone hates being celibate especially when you're getting thru an ordeal of a breakup of loss of a loved one please don't compare like that
@kvernor1 if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all. Your comment wasn’t necessary.
I pray that everyone who is lonely will find someone who will be sincere and help them to overcome the sadness.
Mr Parr can you pray for my daughter who is experiencing loneliness. She is a teen and she is a good daughter. I cry for her not having friends her own age. She tries to reach out, but whenever she thinks she has a friend it turns out not to be. I try to believe that GOD is rooting out all the bad ppl that can come into a person's life. I hope and pray she makes a friend or two when high school goes back to in person learning. Please pray for her and other ppl who are dealing with loneliness, especially young ppl who don't get high or drink to belong. AMEN and thank you.
Amen brother going through this season right now and I knew this was the Lord wanting to spend time with me your video was a confirmation... Thank u for being obeident to the Holy Spirit.
You're welcome joe daniel! Thanks so much!
Been going through this all my life and now it is the same with my daughter. Plz pray for me and her, especially my daughter. She is still in grammar school and I don't want her to go through depression. Plz pray. Thank you.

Thank you for this video, it came at the perfect time. I’m a baby Christian; my life has gone through many changes and I’ve been feeling lonely, it’s been difficult at times for me.
If you're a new Christian then you're in the right place. Have you snagged my free eBooks yet? If not, please head to my website allenparr.com and start reading those. They will help you better understand the Bible. And, if you're interested I have a course that teaches people how to study the Bible. It will also give you access to our private FB group where I'll be hosting weekly bible studies, bible study training and all sorts of other support. For more info go to biblestudymadeez.com. I understand your loneliness. As I said, I spent many years struggling with it. It's normal and natural.
THE BEAT by Allen Parr Thank you, I’ll look into all that.
This is a very good take on how loneliness is. Maybe God is trying to tell me I need to be alone for awhile to get ready for being with somebody. Thank the Lord for friends that helped me to get through this loneliness. But God has a plan.
That is awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and for sharing your perspective Amy P!
Thank you brother! So needed to hear that. I don’t have any real friends but it’s a comfort if nothing else to know I’m not alone

Been BEGGING God for a wife for nearly TWENTY YEARS! Not only have I done everything that I know to do in order to grow closer to God; volunteering at church functions, studying the Bible, giving money and time to the church, praying, begging, pleading for an end to my loneliness. Still so alone and rejected no matter what I do. So ready for an end to this misery.
Hey update ?🥺💛 how you feeling?
@@taliyahford3346 no changes, still crushingly lonely.
@@johnhaleii208 maybe we tend to overestimate our faith ... you may not get a wife in this life or maybe you will. Take the time to look at your life and ask yourself am I putting God first in every situation.
Gods timing is perfect it’s important to understand you don’t need anyone else God is more then enough because God is love .
Maybe God is trying to teach you “love me first” .
God wants a real strong relationship with you maybe it’s a test of faith but all Ik is hang in there Bc the sec u give up could be the sec you could’ve had it all.
Romans 8:18 // “The pain that you've been feeling, can't compare to the joy that's coming.”
Just re check your situation, there is So much more to life than a women .
Also you can’t expect to change and grow if you not doing anything different .
Try going out more and learning more self love.
If you’re need any prayers let me know, God bless your and may we meet again in another life ✝️💛.
@@taliyahford3346 for many years I did everything for God's sake. God has blessed me in other ways, but I have found that the more fervently I pray for something, the less likely there is to be a response. Only growing desire and dwindling hope.
@@johnhaleii208 just keep waiting :) stay strong !
If we feel lonely, remember the way you treat God YAHWEH is how you will treat your spouse or friends or anyone you ever have any relationship with. Thats why if you treat God Yahweh like your supposed to, you will never truly be lonely because you will constantly be remembering him and be in an infinite prayer/meditation with him. So talk to him like how Paul said, in constant prayer! And do like how Solomon recommends and honor him in EVERYTHING.
Just remember that, as with any relationship, this takes time and consistency. Once you start, do not ever stop and this will become a reality.
YHWH YESHUA bless you!
Thanks, good advice.
Like my imaginary friend? Problem solved wow
So thankful that you allow God to come through you to help so many ❤️
Praise God. I try to hear from God every week. I was between releasing this and another video. I'm so glad I went with this one. People are struggling.
Extended loneliness is just so painful and crippling!
Deborah, I really can understand the extended loneliness, but let's focus on Jesus and not let the enemy have the victory over us. Let's all pray for each other! We ARE loved - by our Lord.
@@hokeypokeydoodledandy thank you for the encouragement. I agree
Thank you for this message. It somehow just popped up in my RUclips feed even though I've been subscribed for a while. I'm married and alone. And it's a lot worse than being single and alone I can guarantee it. I used to sit at church and dream what my future would be like with a mate at my side who I can talk to for hours, go to church with, ect. My husband refuses to listen to anything I have to say. We barely talk. And when we do, he takes everything badly. It's extremely frustrating and tiring.
Singles, trust the Lord fully and completely in your lonely stages. Get more involved in church. Reach out to other friends, have fun. Marriage is not always everything you need it to be, but Jesus always is.
God will restore your marriage I recommend seeking help and guidance from Focus On the Family. They have a ton of resources for married couples and can guide you in the right direction. I will pray for you. Pray for your husband God can change his heart. Remember the good days and why you got married in the first place don’t give up ❤️🙏🏻
I feel so lonely. Constantly asking myself, what is wrong with me, for me to not be able to keep a connection. I know rejection is God’s protection, but man… I wish could just have one person to talk to about everything
Well explained, this video is going to help a lot of people.
I hope so Mister. God bless,
I have no idea who would give this message the thumbs down, but this is yet another awesome Word!!!
Seasons of solitude to test our faith. I love this!
This popped up on my feed at the perfect time, I'm struggling with a recent fallout with my girlfriend. Holding fast to the knowledge that so long as the Lord is with us we are never alone. Praise Jesus!
God bless you brother, I've been alone for 3 yrs & I enjoy it. I'm a single mom of four & need to focus on them & the Lord. I know a man should be the head of household & I pray God does send me a kind God fearing man. But I'm @ peace because the Lord takes care of us.
I like what you said about taking the time to build your relationship with God. If he is supposed to be first in our lives, then, part of the solution to loneliness is by developing this first and most important friendship, and then you do become less alone as you wait for the other relationships to develop. And you will also be in a healthier place in which to develop those other ones.
Praise the Lord for this video, im going through this season now. This just uplifted my spirit. Hebrews 3:13= But continually encourage one another everyday, as long as it is called today. God Bless you Brother Parr
Hi, how is t going? How do you feel right now?
I struggle with loneliness so much, not a boyfriend girlfriend thing but a desire to be close to people have someone to talk to. I desire unsexual intimacy. I like to be close to people. I want to be able to talk to someone for hours on end that I can fall asleep with/wake up with. It sounds like a relationship but I don’t want anything sexual. I just want to feel loved. This loneliness feels like I’m drowning alone. I often feel alone even when I’m around people.
Hey, I know this sounds cheesy, but no feeling is finale. God Loves you more than humans can ever comprehend. Your not alone because he's always there, even when we don't feel it. When you mentioned wanting to talk to someone hours on end, it kinda reminds me of how I pray. I'm getting a little side tracked but when I pray, I usually tell him everything and it's like a conversation between friends. Desire to be close to him and loneliness will not bother you as much bc that's what happened to me. Do you have an Instagram? I'm asking bc you can Dm me if you want to talk about anything :)
Need to hear this. Seasons of loneliness can be tough!
I am about to go through what I think is going to be 2 years of loneliness. I have so much faith that this is just going to be a season, and like you said, God has something for me on the other side, also I am going to work hard these two years and stay faithful in Jesus, but man, it’s hard. I already have thoughts that I’m going to feel so lonely without my friends and especially the one who I feel is very, very close to me. I don’t want a spirit of fear with the feeling of loneliness, but I still have these thoughts that I’m not going to see these people (pretty much) ever again. Thank you so much for making these videos, you explain things perfectly, and you are a true man of God.
I've been thru YEARS of loneliness. I got away from an abusive marriage and since then (10 years ago ) I have been suffering from chronic illness and isolation. I don't know how to let Him love me thru this. I'm SOOO discouraged. I try to give all my burdens to Him. I don't have the energy to go out and socialize. It seems like this is all there is😢
While this quarantine and coronavirus is going on it’s tough for everyone. Get in contact with a church and find like-minded friends through church etc.There’s always hope.
@@austincrook8430 many people in churches do not understand chronic illness, especially if it doesn't show. It can be exhausting just to shower, dress, and then to show up. So much prayer is needed. The right doors do open.
Thank you for the encouraging words, Allen. It really helps to hear this during troubling times in one's life. To hear this from someone who even went through such difficult periods himself is really uplifting. The fact that you know of these issues firsthand is why your explanation is spot on and feels really genuine. I will take your advice to heart and I am sure it will help me get through this phase in my life. God bless you!
You don't know about this dude, but last night I was really depressed about a girl that I am kind of afraid to invite (friendship request) due to rejection, eventhough we'll be traveling together to a foreign country soon. I've been single all of my life now (25 years old at the moment) and don't get me wrong, I am not some ugly dude or whatever, it's just that I don't get these girls.
And I just seen your video now about this very issue ( loneliness ) and I believe it is God who spoke to me through you. It can't be a coincidence, it just can't be. Ever since I've started receiving visions through dreams from the beginning of 2015 (eventhough I'm a christian since birth), it can't be a coincidence on how the very next day after my strong depression I just saw your video. I've been struggling with loneliness all of my life and last night was one of those moments that I had such a... hard time dealing with this.
Anywho, thank you so much for this video man. I really do believe God spoke to me through you, so God bless you and your family!
You are so welcome friend. God bless,
Maybe I can encourage you too, friend. Eventually I sent her an invitation and when she accepted, we've talked for a while but she stopped, as if she wasn't even interested. This is the time when I finally said to myself -> It's over, I am tired of this. Because I have spent almost my entire life so far trying to be accepted by other people, especially finding a nice girlfriend.
If you just think about it, why do we waste so much time on people and other crap when we can actually focus on OURSELVES and God? Didn't The LORD tell us that being a friend of the world is an emnity with Him? If you just think what actually a 'friend of the world' means, it's exactly that... chasing other people, trying to fit in the 'social club' and basically doing things that God is not approving at all.
I am happy to tell you that I've stopped doing all of this and started focusing on God and myself trying to build a career. And I can't describe you the freedom I am feeling right now, as it says in John - "The truth will set you free".
The path will not be easy, but if we stay on course we will get there eventually.
So, I pray and hope that you find that same freedom. Being lonely and rejected is actually a big blessing because this way God allows us to focus on Him and ourselves and build the lives we are meant to.
God bless you brother and stay strong!
Mhm, there are always going to be hardships, but that's how we develop a strong character as The Bible also states in a couple examples:
“Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.”
- Timothy 2:3
"That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:"
- 1 Peter 1:7
There is always going to be trippings on the way, but the important thing is to get back up and NEVER give up. I know that this is all easy on words, but if we do not put any action, then we have no power. Otherwise, how can someone expect the Word of God to have any power if he/she does not use it?
Only by putting the words into action we will have the power to overcome anything. But we are also children of God and sometimes we will fall, but only by getting back up we will mature.
Of course I wouldn't mind trying to find a partner, but we should not put our full attention to it. Our full attention should be focused on God, ourselves (personal lives - character, career etc.) and helping other people when possible and everything else will be alright.
I also have my own personal plan for success:
- Consistency
- Hard work
- Endurance
- Patience
And remember that failure always leads to success, no matter in what area of your life you are finding yourself in, as long as you are consistent, work hard and be patient that your time will come eventually. You've probably heard the saying "Hard work always pays off"? -> It's true.
God bless and I pray that these words are encouraging enough to give you hope. Take care!
Илиянски Thank you so much for this.
Allen, Thank you so much for this video. I know it was a long time ago when you didn't have many subs, But I'm glad you stayed encouraged throughout to stick to this ministry. These videos will be here forever and will help so many more just like me who are struggling with this. Thank you so much for being here
This was sooooooo MUCH NEEDED! GOD DEFINITELY spoke to me through this video! Thank you
I am so happy to hear this and watch this video. I am now in my loniness season. I could not understand from God why. So i ask to God :" Abba heavenly father , do i miss a piont in this. Because i feel loniness now , so what do i miss ". So i search up on RUclips , got to see Allen Parr on this video. So now i can understand why God allow me the season off loniness. Thank you so much , Allen Parr ☺️🌈🙏
Amen God is using this man greatly!! All of these teaching have blessed my soul
There’s also ‘lonely at the top.’😪
Yeah an athlete knows that feeling
I am in that season right now. The Lord called me into ministry a few years ago and I’ve been preparing, going deep into my word, and the Lord has tested me so much. It’s hard! But I will get through this season in Jesus name.
Thank you for this video.. especially that last reminder "it's just a season.. God has something else on the other side". I feel like God wants me to draw closer to Him, but I've been slacking 😔. I pray He gives me the desire to spend more time with Him.
I know I'm three years late....but I need this....we all need this...😏 It's very hard humans are not meant to be alone ALL OF THE TIME. For me personally, I've had to do a lot of ' keeping my thoughts ' in check because loneliness can play havoc with your mental health! And JESUS really REALLY is the one to turn to during this time as with other times too.....sometimes I've thought JESUS has forgotten me 😢 but he truly hasn't. 🤗🤗🤗 Yep.... I've felt great loneliness...but I'm not alone ! 🙏😊💚
You're so right....intense, long loneliness can be that - our enemy wants to use it to destroy us. Let's keep focusing on Jesus and some day soon we'll all be really together, no more loneliness in heaven.
I know this is a year old video , but i needed this so much i find myself feeling lonley i moved out of state for a job and i don't hace anyone no family no friends most days im fine but it comes in waves thank you so very much for sharing thia video it has helped alot
I completely relate to your situation I moved to Florida for nursing school and I am completely alone down here sometimes I wonder if I need to go back on medication for depression
I recently moved to Florida also and I have no friends. Just work and back home . I am fine most times but some days I get sad bc I don’t have family or friends around
I trust that it will get better
Have faith ❤️💕
Thanks brother. Really needed this
So welcome my man!
What a wonderful message... thank you! Reach up, reach in and reach out... great to know and practice!
Thank you, brother Allen Parr, for doing this video. You can see by the comments that there are a LOT of us going through loneliness!!
I am tired of being lonely and being my own village. My family is broken and I wished I had support. I wish I had memories of good times instead all I remember is toxicity and abuse. It’s really sad.
This is a sad season and it’s been going on for years..
God Bless you to the fullest extent man I truly belive God is speaking through you. This video helped me so much! I have been going through a season of loneliness and knowing that this is a time to develop myself, talk to God, and reach out encouraged me. I now understand that clearly this is for a reason that something bigger is coming up quickly and he is preparing me for it. I have no idea what it is but I pray that I learn and am ready. Thank you
Thanks for sharing bro.Allen this is very is informative and encouraging God bless you and this Ministry ❤😊
I've felt like this plenty of times. I just wanna take the time to get closer to God. And later on in his time that blessing will come. Just take the time out to get closer to God get to know him. Maybe that's the time u need to build a relationship with him. Now God has delivered me out of messy situations and I thank god for that hes made a way even I couldn't see a way. And when I think back on that I cry at times but then i smile and say thank u lord. Lord I know that was u. The lord is good and all the time he IS GOOD. I'm never alone that's how I look at it jesus is there with me. Watching over me keeping me from the dangers of this world seen and unseen. Just need to take the time to get to know God he wants u to have a close relationship with him he wants u to get to know him. He wants YOU. He doesnt always give you want you want but he gives you what you need. And that is something to give the lord full thanks for. When my mother died I felt the whole world crumble on me and I felt like life was over . Because my mom whom I loved so much and lost at the age of 16 I didn't know how I was gonna pull through. I turned to any and everything but God only to find I wasn't satisfied. I was lonely plenty of times I had no friends to talk to really and those times I could've went to God but I didn't. Instead I went to other things. But then I had to stop and think wait, what am I doing. I wasn't raised like this my mama took me to church and taught me of God and I've heard it all around me ever since. Here I'm 23 years old I gave my life to God, and this time I plan on sticking with him. I say this plenty of times we get lonely but the lord is there and hes always ready to give a lending hand. How we are so grateful to have the lord who understands how it feels to be alone. But we're not. He is everywhere no matter where u are. He cares. God bless each and every soul and always show love 💕
I'm 31 years old and all my friends that are Christian guys are either married or have a girlfriend. I am single. I rarely ever talk to my Christian guy friends anymore and they have not even reached out to me at all. When I would talk to them, they didn't seem interested in talking to me. It has been over a year since I have spoken to most of them or seen them. If I texted them, they would either respond days later or just say no. I even was told by an older married man that married people do not like hanging around single people and that statement is very true. My married friends (or not friends anymore) don't even acknowledge me anymore. I have made some friends but most of them are gay men. I honestly do not even want to go to church anymore cause its full of married people with their kids and nothing for singles. I would rather watch the sermon online and not have to step foot in a church. Its worse feeling alone with a bunch of people around you than feeling alone in your own house.
The struggle is very real and unfortunately married people are also human beings whose plates are full. I also have my fair share of alienation. "Single" are labelled as undesirable. But chin up! God never leaves you nor forsakes you
If the world hates you remember it hated me first.
-Jesus Christ
This one really hit hard for me brother. Btw I'm loving the thumbnails man. Keep up the great work brother. GOD be with you.
Can’t wait for this long season to pass. I have been single 9 years and have struggled. This sounds bad but I’ve really disliked this time, most of the time. Lord only knows when this will end.

@@bko5489 I did! It blessed me. I will be sure to listen to it again soon.
Loneliness can be overwhelming at times😢 but am taking this time to love myself and put me first because all my life i always make sure others are okay now it's mine turn they all gone but God sees and He know how am feeling he will strengthen me
I was talking to a girl and today she said she was done talking to me, ended on a bad note because I was confused and asked why. But she was the last string left to cut for me to be in a state of solitude. It’s time to strengthen my faith and relationship in god!
Thank you for this! God bless and love from the Cayman Islands :)
over 10 years of loneliness...single. But now that I decided to stop social drinking, I KNOW feel even more lonely!!
Growing up I never had many friends, I suffered from depression for many years and my therapist prescribed Zoloft , now at 25 I'm in a state with no family finishing up my RN degree. The only thing that has stopped me from committing suicide is the fear of going to hell
May God Jesus make Miracle in your life and bring all good days in your life, AMEN!
I was prescribed Zoloft too. I’ve felt the same fear of hell and I’ve also suffered from depression and anxiety. Let God’s hope in. It’s hard but we’re all here to help each other. You got Xbox?
Thank God for your wisdom and for sharing that wisdom. Loneliness is difficult but it is comforting that know that God has a purpose and a plan in the midst of it all.
Thank you for this video. I needed this. God bless you and keep up the awesome work!

I have found brothers and sisters at my local Christian youth group. It has helped with my loneliness ❤
It is sooo hard tho😭😭😭 im not perfect but im doing my best... Even in keeping busy I still feel loney sometimes. I can attest to the fact that all that you have mentioned does help, its just every now and then the feeling does arise, tears fall, the mind has questions, the heart feels like its breaking.
Bro thank you for meaningful n important msg... Bt still practically very difficult only God knows tht pain... Specially in spite of being married...n feeling lonely in many areas...
Thank u for really for giving me understanding on why it feels so long I'm waiting on God to bless me with my Queen and the devil been trying to steal that blessing from me so thanks for that message
The first reason is the best reason I could ever want to hear!
Allen once again one of your video went on the perfect time, very very very perfect timing with one verse, god talked to me and revealed to me something today while watching your video. He revealed to me a verse (that is in your video) as a prophecy 2 months ago, and I didn't know what to think about it, I tried to find an interpretation for it. At the second where I saw the verse in your video right now, I've got a text from someone that made the verse come to life and have its full perfect meaning, confirmed by the holy spirit. Just wow. He planned it 2 months ago, just mind blowing hehe!!
Again, god is using you in ways you probably don't even suspect, this is why I'm writing this comment to let you know and let other people know how god can act in your life, thank you for your ministry.
You're speaking to my soul right now 😁
I'm the lonely senior. However by God's grace I'm not depressed about it.
However I do wish I could go on a occasional date..
I honestly pray that he's preparaing me for marriage in my old age 😁
In the meantime I'm enjoying my season of solitude by truly appreciate discovering who I'm . Can I tell you it's a beautiful journey 🙏😁🙏 Glory to God 🙏

Thank you for this message. It really hit home.
Thanks so much Gingee bread, I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thanks again for taking the time to watch. God bless Gingee bread,
Allen Parr, Great videos, greetings from Nicaragua, Central America.
I've been "reaching up" and searching self help on RUclips. ... the season is real.
Much Love Brother, thanks for the video 🙏🏽
It’s a horrible feeling it’s like an inner emptiness we may be surrounded by people and still feel lonely, we all as believers go through times of despair, loneliness, anxiety , depression, I’ve learned to put my trust in God only seeking him in prayer reading his word and fasting which will give us strength and perseverance and also fellowship with other Christ believers
Always on point! Thanks for sharing this message, Allen.
It is hard to be alone, but we need this period to grow closer to God and work on ourselves for the coming season. For my part, I know I need to focus on my purpose.
Thank you Mr. Allen, i' m blessed with your topic now, fit to my situation. I will aply
You're welcome Haidy Elentorio! Thanks so much!
