God, my heart is often anxious and in fear of being alone.
I am so common in being afraid I will live without love.
Yet I am so unfair to remark such a thing when I am never alone.
And if there is not a mate in my life, there is still great Love in my life.
You are everything I want in Love.
You are Love.
Being alone is simply being alone with You.
What better place could anyone be?
With You we are free to be ourselves and do not have to regret trusting.
With You we are more likely to stay within Godly boundaries and a promising eternity.
If there is not a mate in my life,
It must either be because You have yet to do work in my life,
Work in his life,
Or work in our coming together…
To worship together.
You simply want to spend some extra time alone with me or him.
The more You allow us to grow in You, the more we will worship You together.
We will be support for one another… and glorify You.
I do not regret trusting You, or fear being alone.
Being alone is being with You and only You.
Thank You for thinking I am so special to spend that time with me.
I know You enjoy worshiping with me,
Being in church with me,
Sharing scripture,
Indulging in daily devotions,
And meditating on my bed at night on Your word,
And oh the joy and smiles You share in singing with me…
I love praising You, Father.
I love sharing You with others,
And oh there are souls who need to know of You.
They feel so alone.
They feel like they will never love or be loved.
I pray for them, Father.
Place in them a peace and love that You give me.
They too will say they are not afraid to be alone…
Not afraid to be alone with You.
