Beloved of All
Many come on with requests about loneliness, they feel "out of the mainstream" because they're maybe not part of a "clique," or not married, etc. Me, I have the opposite problem—I deal with TOO MANY people, and as such, sometimes I have to as protocol "compromise" and put aside my own way of doing things and kind of get "swallowed up in the crowd." So I have the opposite request of a lonely person—that I can have MORE TIME alone, to confirm my own identity, not have my identity "washed away" by or being "swallowed up" by others. It would be good for my ego to, for once, be myself, and being alone, and doing things alone, is sometimes the only way to do that.

Make a change brother. Seize the time!
May the Lord bless your request, in the mighty name of our risen Savior Jesus I pray, amen.

###, I'm just going to say it, many of your posts sounded like murmuring (complaining). I feel that you convey that you're always tired of so and so, tired of this or that, or people's ways that irritate you. It is a work of the flesh (it's carnal). You're sinning right on the board where people are asking for prayer.

Also, I'd point out that if you think you're superior or better than these "groups" or people you complain about then it is pride, and it will hold you back from your full potential in the Lord.

###, you need to turn from all sinful behavior, and walk in the Spirit. Replace complaining by giving "thanks" to the Lord for all things. Remember the Psalms "Give thanks to the Lord for He is good..." These things in Scripture are written for examples and are meant to be followed.

If people are sinning around you and they're saved and it's clearly a sin, you can point it out (If you're not in sin). Sinful Christians need to repent, and unsaved people need to repent (change mind/heart). This can be with the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Also, I'd like to mention, a Christian is not to have close relationships with unsaved people. Light doesn't have fellowship with darkness. When you work with people they are colleagues, you have to know how to talk, you can't be social with unsaved people.

I prayed for your happiness and contentment. In Jesus name. Amen.

I don't have to "approve of" or agree with everything I see around me, and I would be lying if I said that I did. Sometimes you can't avoid dealing with unsaved people, you have to work with or have dealings with them.
