The Process

Monday, I decided to seek after God's heart regardless of the cost.

Tuesday, I struggled with what that meant.

Wednesday, I followed my convictions and put into action what I knew needed to be done.

Thursday, I learned that meant learning to be content with being alone and learning to lean on the promises of God to carry me through.

Today, I am learning that there is a difference between being alone and being lonely.

Loneliness is a feeling; being alone is a state. When we focus so much on our circumstances and draw our love and acceptance so much from other people, we reach a state of loneliness.  However, in those moments, we must remember the character of God and that we have all we need in Him.

I'm learning to have a more intimate relationship with my God, where I can learn to be alone, but not lonely.
