Why Is Life Mostly Boring and Lonely? (feat. Nell O'Leary)

[@christianedion5517]

I am personally going through a funk in my life right now. I am actually clinging to the Lord and Our Lady. I know it doesn't last but it is extremely exhausting.

[@nicolasfarah2092]

You will soon realize that God let it happen for the good an then what will happen? You will live in total surrender to the Lord which is the only true meaning of being free in this fallen kingdom. Speaking through experience. God bless you.

I wouldn’t trade my quiet, Boeing’ life for anything. It’s a blessing to find peace and contentment in the less exciting times of our lives.

[@ruthortega5822]

Blessed Mother, when I feel lonely and alone, help me to know that God is always with me. Help me to turn to him in prayer all the time, lonely or not.

[@bureaucrazy1234]

Quiet alone times are a gift from God.

[@equine2020]

In silence you will find GOD. Maybe that's why so many prefer constant noise around them. Scared of finding GOD.

I will do what i can do and will leave what i can't do for the Lord.

[@alittlepieceofearth]

I like to think that these periods are a time of preparation. We are being prepared for something greater. And, yes, I think that part of that preparation is being driven to seek out the Lord.

[@StephenTruxton]

So, I’m in this state and I know it’s only God that can fill this hole. I just wish He would fill it with the feelings I get when I’m affirmed by people. Instead, it seems, I have to push forward, plugging away with discipline of morning prayer, noon rosary, evening prayer in Adoration chapel waiting for this season to change, waiting for feelings of affirmation & connectedness to come.

the recent ascension presents releases are SPEAKING TO ME

[@cchemmes-seeseeart3948]

What changed my whole life, is encounter with God, & seeing His very real presence with me. In a very difficult time, He has shown me so clearly He is with me, & has good plans for my life, & wants me to live by faith, with trust in Him, & His intervention to help me against evil assaults, & on & on. This happened so simply. I say a prayer, read a daily Bible devotion or listen to a sermon or pray to read the right thing in a Bible based life application book, & God has allowed me to see such stunning match between my prayers & the Word given, that i know it is from Him. It is the best thing that has ever happened to me. He has also helped me to know He desires that we live in joy. He will give it if you seek Him & draw close. Love you Church.

[@laur5486]

This felt like it was directed at me today 🙏🏻

[@lisa-tm5ix]

This is beautiful and inspiring. As a young woman who has faced/is facing many challenges and then dry periods, I immediately felt encouraged and at peace with everything you shared. The point of God the Son and Mother Mary's hidden lives was interesting. How encouraging that they achieved so much with this setup that gave them space to form and fortify themselves to achieve - and more importantly - be close to God. I will keep it in mind. I was feeling stagnant, and being a daily visitor to this amazing channel, decided to check if there were any new videos on the topic, and here it was! It made me smile to hear you remind us who truly satisfies our longing to be known and loved, and to reach out to God who is forever eagerly waiting for us with open arms. I will! Thank you ❤

[@bernerandgoldenmom7143]

This is great! Thank you for addressing this. It's easy to chastise yourself when things are "fine" but you feel lonely, even when you're busy and surrounded by others. It's easy to tell yourself you're just wallowing in the pity pool, pull up your boot straps, and stop bellyaching. Most of us are great at listening to that judgmental snot in our heads who tells to essentially snap out of it. Shaming yourself at times like this is not good for you or anyone in your life. It is a great time to reach out to our beautiful Blessed Mother and ask for her intercession and her perspective. She was human, too; she gets it. And she can help; we just need to ask and listen. 💞

[@vonmusel6158]

This is a great question and answer is given succintly, without this emptiness we would never look for God and be lost

[@thevoicewithin930]

The ability to be present, to just be, is a true gift.

[@natashazakinja2087]

I self sabotage and create chaos 😔 Please pray for me 🙏

[@nikkif.409]

That was fantastic and so needed! I am going through a major down time but I know it is needed. Yesterday at Adoration the Lord told me to really spend this time with him. I am very much an adventurer and normally healthy and I have been sick and stuck at home. Even my dogs are bored. I am a single woman in a new town full of families so it isn’t exactly a happen’in place for someone like me. But, my goal is to go into religious life at a late age and the Lord is guiding me through it.

[@Sam-el6hq]

I'm always lonely, all my friend's "Mostly christian" dropped me soon as I needed them. Now I'm on depression meds, cursing God often, broke my hand punching a desk last week because I can't take much more of how thing's are going. Yet where are my friends? I choose to be alone now, it beats getting hurt by people you once trusted..

[@fideliapollett1479]

You are not alone you Jesus and our blessed Mother with. Pray the rosary it will help you get peace and you'll be stronger emotionally. God blessed you. God Loves You 🙏

[@MaryAnnSchons]

I am sorry you feel abandoned and betrayed. Jesus understands that for it happened to Him. Know I'm praying for you. We are never alone

You are not alone. I'll be praying for you. Don't forget that you are a child of God. ❤

[@Mistah_Boombastic_BiggieCheese]

Life isnt worth living since im in the same situation. 26, no beautiful wife and kids to provide for and come home to. Just work and work out and repeat. Everyone gets their soulmates handed to them on a silver platter. There’s no escaping this. God is waiting for me to end it all, knowing that he will never let me out of this. I have needs for human companionship. Apparently it is good for man to be alone, and genesis is completely meaningless

[@ryecabs]

Truly.. I almost burst into tears 😢❤ Thanks 🙏

[@abbylamaria]

I absolutely relate. As a college student I feel like im in a period where life feels like a waiting game. Waiting to end the school year, waiting to quit my job on campus, waiting to move back home. It all feels so dull most of the time. Praise God for His timing.🤍

[@AsCrowFly]

I have a week off from work and day 1 I injured my knee and am at home feeling bored and alone

[@nicolasfarah2092]

These things happen to everyone. It's normal or else we are robots. Bad things will happen eventually if you have a free will but the Lord will always be there to help and give back to us. He did not say tgese things won't He said i will be there for you.

its always easy for people who have great things going for them to say just keep faith and hang on to God, but what about those who are suffering for many years now? It is extremely difficult to keep faith and continue hoping when nothing is improving in your life for years now even when you are trying your best praying everyday and trying to be a better person.

[@equine2020]

Life is what you make it. Stop thinking about yourself. Help others, improve lives of others. 2 or 4 legged. The purpose of life is. " to know, love, & serve GOD" As a wealthy wise women told her daughter " get out of yourself ". You aren't the center of the world.

Cruel. Dismissing others' emotions and feelings is NOT serving God.

[@sofiarose6039]

@bernerandgoldenmom7143 I don’t think their point was to dismiss others’ feelings. The point is to not focus on the emptiness, but to fill it by helping others. I think people find their purpose in helping others tbh.

[@PublicRetard]

Perfect thing to tell others who are experiencing loneliness and depression “get over yourself, you aren’t the center of the world!”. How about a little compassion? People can’t properly help others until they’ve helped themselves. People like you with this mentality just want things to go back to the 1950s where every mental health issue were dismissed.

[@equine2020]

@@bernerandgoldenmom7143 You misunderstand my post. Too many people are wrapped up in themselves. Self loving. God wants people to serve others. Not be self loving.

Hi!

[@bluebear107]

Loneliness is cancer of the heart.

[@jeffwilliams7054]

I and many Christians do wonder how we can best serve and bless our creator as we are daily transformed by His Holy Spirit. How much quality do we present in practice of deep worship and single focus in gratefulness and worship to our creator in "heaven" and within this "abode" by His Holy Spirit. Many are the thoughts of how are friends or internet groups will be impressed. Our mind wanders on how we can improve our social situation even while entering in prayer to the Holy of Holies. Can this mental preoccupation be transformed? "Let your eye be one". What can we "sacrifice" daily at the alter that which is a fragrant smoldering incense to our beloved even if we are not worthy? Can this be improved upon in depth, focus, openness, faith, and breadth of our souls ".closet..in secret." and in every manifestation as children of God?
