Prayer and loneliness

Message for Aug. 6, 2011.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Loneliness is an emotional emptiness that some associate with being physically alone and away from family and friends, but, it is not. It is the physical as well as spiritual isolation one feels when they are apart from Me, their God. Nothing is more lonely than having no Father to call on when you are in need of financial, spiritual and material need.

When family, friends, relatives and neighbors don't listen to your call for help and still there is no one from above that you can depend on, that is total isolation and deep, deep loneliness that drives some to commit suicide.

The loneliness for physical interaction can be remedied by going our, watching television, cellphones, video chat and other modern means of interaction but the lack of connection between Me and man if they are not aware of how awesome prayer is, is really unreachable. Yes, it is true that the distance between you and Me is your bent knees in prayer and supplication. What can be more reachable and cheap than that?

It is My wish that every child of mine should at least daily spend an hour in totality of calling on My name. Breaking that down into several minutes per day surely doesn't take much of your time. What can be more important than calling on your Savior and Guide?

Please disseminate this way of praying so that no one will ever feel lonely and bereft when they feel there is no one for them physically.
