After I discovered what causes loneliness,I began to think of ways to overcome it.By admitting loneliness,I was really saying,"I can`t think of anyone but myself."
Therefore,to overcome loneliness one must think of others.IDEAS came to mind such as baking something for a sick neighbor,sending a note of appreciation to a teacher,or just spending time talking to someone.After a few experiences of reaching out,I realized the truth of this cure.The joy of giving of myself to others took the lonely feelings away.
Do for others what you want them to do for you (Matt.7:12 LB).
Lord,when I'm` feeling lonely,help me to recognize my selfish attitude and get rid of it by doing something for someone else.Amen.-by:Sandra
