         (Dad:) The subject of loneliness is a big one for our Family now. But goodness, if everything was always hunky-dory all of the time in the Family, with no battles or trials, no personal feelings of loss, emptiness or incapability, we would be out of touch with the world and the needs of the Lord's sheep.
         Loneliness is good for us! It's difficult, but when you think about it, loneliness trials are not any more difficult than jealousy or anger or impatience, or the battles faced by those who think negatively about themselves or are critical of others. They are all trials and they are all difficult. But they are not impossible to go through or survive, because all trials should draw us closer to Jesus. That's the ultimate goal, to get closer to the Lord! Praise His Name! (ML #3065)
