Ecclesiastes 1:9 (NIV)
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.
This is the 10th and the last installment of the loneliness lessons. I hope you’ve enjoyed the journey through scripture and picked up some helpful hints along the way.
The last lesson is that we are all in this together. The idea of loneliness is not a unique feeling.
Although it feels like it most of the time. The book of Ecclesiastes 1:8 reminds us that “there is nothing new under the sun”. (NIV) It is a reminder that everything happens and will continue to happen. It is how we choose to react to those happenings that will determine our outlook.
Here are all the lessons that we’ve covered. Read over them again when you need some help. Feel free to share them with other people who may be feeling lonely.

Please join with me in prayer for those who feel lonely every day and those who may feel especially lonely during this time of social distancing: people who are widowed, people who have no family, those who are estranged from their families, those in nursing homes, those in the hospitals, those who struggle with depression…the list goes on and on. We are all in this together. If we pray with one another and pray for each other our prayers will be heard.
Matthew 18:20 (NIV)
“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”

Remember we are all in this together and I am praying for you and I ask that you pray for me in return.
