The first thing in all creation that God named as not being good was loneliness. He said of Adam whom he had created, “It is not good for man to be alone.” It’s as true now as it was then. Maybe you remember the song by Elvis Presley, “Are You Lonesome Tonight?” He sang that song with such feeling that it was one of his longest running hits.
Sometime after his death I read something that gave a clue to his singing with such authority about lonesome nights. Someone asked him why he abused drugs and the king confessed, “Because I’d rather be unconscious than miserable.”
Do you know that feeling? It’s not good to be alone, and you don’t need to be. Take Christ as your friend and join in his great family, the church, and it will help with the lonesomeness of life.
