How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels lonely even though they believe Loneliness is confusing when you have faith. You start wondering if you’re doing something wrong—because shouldn’t belief fill this gap? David didn’t think so. That’s why he keeps saying, “How long, O Lord?” Not once. Not twice. Over and over. In Hebrew, the phrase signals prolonged isolation, not a bad day. David was surrounded by people, songs, rituals. And still, he felt alone enough to say it out loud to God. If faith hasn’t cured your loneliness, Scripture doesn’t accuse you. It agrees with you. And it gives you language so you don’t have to sit in that feeling by yourself. #LonelinessInFaith #Psalms #David #SpiritualIsolation #FaithAndEmotion584Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowFeeling abandoned by God doesn’t mean He’s gone I used to think silence meant He’d left me behind. No signs. No answers. Just emptiness. Then I read Psalm 22 slowly. David says, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” The Hebrew word implies distance, not total absence. God’s presence wasn’t gone. It was hidden, waiting for recognition. Feeling invisible to God today doesn’t make you faithless. It makes you human—and Scripture validates that struggle, without sugarcoating it. #FeelingAbandoned #Psalm22 #David #FaithAndStruggle #BiblicalTruth273Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowWhen praying feels meaningless, you’re not alone Some nights, I opened my Bible and prayed the same words again, expecting the same silence. I wondered if God had stopped listening. Then I noticed David in Psalm 13. He begins by asking, “How long, O Lord?” He doesn’t pretend to feel hope. He names despair openly. In Hebrew, his words are precise: questioning, not rebelling. If prayer feels heavy today, you are in good company. The Bible shows that even those closest to God sometimes pray through exhaustion—and their words are still sacred. #PrayerFatigue #David #Psalm13 #FaithAndEmotion #BiblicalLament81Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels lonely even though they believe in God Loneliness didn’t come from unbelief. It came from feeling unseen—by people, and eventually, by God. That’s why I pay attention to how often David asks God to look at him. In the Psalms, this request appears again and again. The Hebrew verb suggests urgency, almost insistence. David isn’t asking for gifts. He’s asking for attention. The Bible doesn’t shame that need. It records it. Over and over. If faith hasn’t cured your loneliness, you’re not failing spiritually. Scripture never promised belief would erase isolation. It promised that loneliness could still be spoken—out loud, and preserved as prayer. #LonelinessInFaith #Psalms #David #ChristianLife #SpiritualIsolation10714Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels emotionally abandoned by God Nothing terrible happened. God just felt… absent. Then I reread Psalm 22 more slowly. Before hope appears, David says, “Why are you so far from saving me?” In Hebrew, the phrase implies distance, not rejection. God isn’t gone—He’s silent. Scripture makes room for that difference. Silence is not the same as abandonment. If God feels distant today, you’re not imagining things—and you’re not condemned for noticing. David noticed it too, and his words are still considered Scripture. #FeelingAbandoned #Psalm22 #David #FaithAndSilence #BiblicalLament211Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels lonely even in church I was surrounded by people. And still felt unseen. Then I paid attention to David—not as king, but earlier. Before the crown, he keeps saying one thing in the Psalms: “Look at me.” The Hebrew verb implies urgency, not self-pity. It’s the cry of someone present, yet overlooked. The Bible never assumes community automatically heals loneliness. Even David felt isolated while worshiping among others. If church hasn’t cured your loneliness, you’re not broken. You’re experiencing something Scripture already understands—and names without shame. #LonelinessInFaith #Psalms #David #ChristianLife #SpiritualIsolation92Share
