With Youનમૂનો

It's kind of nice to be alone sometimes, you know? You can get some peace and quiet, go at your own pace, hear yourself think, and not have to worry about anyone else. Sometimes, being alone is refreshing! But being alone isn't the same as feeling alone. It's ironic how, even though we're more connected than ever through our devices, many of us are still feeling lonelier than ever. 

In the Bible, there's a book about two women named Ruth and Naomi who knew some things about loneliness. When Naomi lost her entire family, Ruth courageously chose to be with her during the loneliest time of her life. And through Ruth's relationship with Naomi, God did some pretty amazing things. So the next time you meet a "Naomi" (someone who is feeling alone, left out, or excluded), be a "Ruth." Because if we want someone to know God is with them, we can start by being with people when they're lonely.

How can you be a support to someone who may be lonely?
