    Amen. Regardless of the feeling Jesus is Lord. And he is our great high priest who can empathize with our temptations and our lives but never sinned. There’s been a lot of isolation in my life but I am so grateful for Jesus. He’s really there.

    Timely... I Jost lost my last friend, my best friend a month ago, but my relationship with God has increased 10 fold as a result as me having no one else besides my family. I do feel lonely sometimes, and have felt guilty, so thank you for clearing that up 🙏 God will bring the right people into my life, like a Father He cares for us

    Thank you for sharing Orlando. I can relate, I am a relatively new christian. My close family and friends are not christian, so I often feel lonely. They don't share my love for Jesus, which is hard. I am so grateful for church acquaintances and online communities. Even my cats, they make me feel less lonely.
    God leads me through difficult lonely times and gives me connection with other people when I least expect it, I still feel lonely but I know He does see me and takes care of me.
    Take care 🙏

    Thank you so much. This encouragement, from a Christian perspective, was exactly what I needed. There is a tendency to feel misunderstood for being lonely as a Christian. But I believe, like you, that there is nothing wrong with this. God created us this way. I am in a very lonely time, and I love the thought that we can bring that to God, and He is with us in it. He does not judge us for it. He made us to need connection.

    ‭Isaiah 53:3-5 LSB‬
    [3] He was despised and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.
    [4] ¶Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted.
    [5] But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our peace fell upon Him, And by His wounds we are healed.

      @@Orlando-Kang Yes, myself at well. I remember after receiving the Holy Spirit from God on December 31, 2017 it was some time after when I read Isaiah 53 and knew through revelation from God that is it was about Jesus. I don't recall anyone telling me this. I believe it was God that showed me.

    on point again!
    i think many young people feel alone those days, specially if they are trying to avoid all the things that this world is bringing. But something Jesus taught me was that at the right time the right people come. He doesn't want us to be 100% alone, because it wouldn't even make sense if He says we need to congregate, take care of each other... He even encourage friendship in Proverbs 18:1.
    So I think that this solitude can be a time to get closer to Him and truly know Him.

    i am just saved, I've gone through being suicidal, living with death wish, porn etc. but lately, I've been feeling lonely and disappointed by my condition and people around me. i feel incredibly guilty at times cos having Christ, the King of all kings should be enough.
    I've always been alone and it's so difficult to deal but you're absolutely right. God is everything and this lonely spirit should be defeated and driven out. I believe that I won't lack anything.

    Hey, Orlando!
    This is very timely. It's been years since I've accepted Christ and joined a church but the feeling of loneliness never really went away. It's reached a boiling point where I've considered changing churches instead of staying in this one because of the lack of sense of belonging in this community. (I've tried my level best to connect for years to no avail.) It's been excruciatingly lonely and I could only pray about my predicament.
    Glad you talked about this. I needed to hear this from someone else in the faith walk. It's reassuring to know that I'm not the only one facing this.

      One thing I have learned is never put your eyes on man. Man can disappoint you, man can betray, lie and let you down. Always keep your eyes on Jesus. Look at Peter. The second he took his sight away from Jesus on the boat, he began to sink. Jesus will never abandon you.

It's like talking to an online community that I'll never know but in my mind I'm talking to Christians that feel the same way as me. We will be together one day.

    Thank you for this.
    Quite recently, I have been feeling lonely.
    I made three friends from the university.
    Two of them seem extremely busy with life.
    Sometimes I when I call (for less than 7 mins) them(once a week) to check up on them (it feels like I'm bothering them).
    I had to let go of the last one because she is not a believer and isn't willing to surrender her life to Jesus Christ.
    This experience has made me trust God more than ever. Cos I have realised that He always listens and is an ever present help.
    I am confident that in the right time He will surround me with a godly company

    Thank you very much for this video. These last 2 years have been really complicated for me, had a loss last year (my father), but also a lot of blessings, one of them having the opportunity to do part of my phD in another country (something like an Erasmus). And I'm loving the opportunity and I thank God every single day for it, but at the same time it can feel a bit more lonely than I usually feel in my country. For me the best thing though is being here by myself allows me to freely open to God with all my feelings and really have the freedom to cry (you know, without bumping to your mom for example and she worrying about you etc etc). I tried sharing this feeling of loneliness with some people, but in the end I understood that I only have God to share these feelings with...some don't understand so well or are just "you're having an amazing opportunity, focus on that" and I know this, I'm totaly concious and aware about this, but it doesn't mean some days are really hard. And these statements only made me feel bad and guilty about my feelings, that I wasn't being grateful enough. I also think I didn't have a proper time to process my father passing, because everything happened really fast. Well, anyway, ended up venting a little bit here, but really, thank you very much for the video and may God continue to bless you and your channel :)
