I try to connect with the love of the divine and a lot of the time I do feel that love for me from above.Lately I have been lonely and I am struggling to feel that love I usually feel,I can usually feel love through other people what I do for them when I make them happy or make them laugh.

I am looking more at finding God through nature,enjoying my garden,the trees,the greenery,the birdlife,the insects even everyone a gift from God's intelligent design.I am his creation too,so why do I exist alone and feel unloved and that no one cares at times?

Does anyone have any words of reassurance,can you tell me how you get through the times you feel desolate and alone,I am sometimes desperate for company!

I know that fixing this kind of thing is hard, but I have found God too, and it looks like you're headed in the right path. When I am alone and feeling lonely, I like to remind myself that I am never truly alone, and that I have God watching and positive energy being sent my way. Sometimes simply being around people helps me, like going to a bookstore. Surround yourself with things that you love and maybe it won't seem as bad.

I also try to get out so that I am with others. Even if they are strangers, they are still other people.
Are you well enough to volunteer anywhere? I was thinking that might be a way that you could be with others. The place where I volunteer is *really* nice to all the volunteers (and of course their clients) so I enjoy going there and doing what I can for them.
In the meantime, would you be alright with me remembering you in prayer? Please let me know.
I wish you all the very best.

Thank you Barbella yes it would be ok to remember me in your prayers.Thank you!
I try to get out when I can I have been more ill than usual lately so haven't been out as much,to my usual haunts usually I do go for a coffee or browse the shops just to be out among people.

OK, thank you Marylin, you are definitely in my prayers. I hope that you will start to feel better soon. Take good care of yourself.

I think connecting with God/creator through nature is a wonderful way to do this

I hope that you will feel better able to get out and about soon.
