all alone

A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,

is God in his holy dwelling.
God sets the lonely in families,
he leads out the prisoners with singing;

 ~ Psalms 68:5-6

In a family as large as ours, it's easy to take for granted always having someone around for companionship, it's hard to be lonely. Rarely is there a moment when something you do or say goes unnoticed. With pre-teen boys, that can be good or bad.

However, not everyone has this luxury. Often times people feel like an island and that they're the only ones that understand whats going on with them. This feeling of isolation often leads to depression and outright loneliness.

In a city like Miami, where there are millions and millions of people everywhere you go, you would be surprised how many people feel all alone. At ReMerge, we're finding people that are all alone in an ocean of people and sharing Jesus' love with them. Our hope is to draw them into community with others. Creating a place where they belong and can start sharing life with others and more importantly, sharing life with Jesus.

Who in your life is lonely? What can you do to make them feel loved?
