As painful as loneliness can be, don't forget that it can motivate you, too. If you're in a season of loneliness, how can these feelings fuel you towards a greater purpose?

When you are hurting in loneliness you often don’t feel like you have the energy or the wherewithal to step out. I have been there. But you just might find that becoming the organizer for activities brings you new life and joy. How will you know if you don't take the first step?

I love this quote from Mother Teresa. Love is a powerful emotion that can heal so many things in our lives. How can you show love to someone today?

Reaching out breaks the illusion of being alone. It opens the door to recovery from loneliness. #TransformingLoneliness

Sometimes being alone doesn't mean are lonely. It can provide us with the space we need to heal, recharge, worship, reconnect... How can you start making solitude a priority in your life?

Some hope to hold on to this week...

Today, with #TransformingLoneliness out in the world, I invite you to join me on my journey through loneliness. Maybe you'll see yourself in these pages. My prayer is that this book can lift you up, offer you encouragement in dark times, and give you courage to move forward.

We are just a few days away from the release of #TransformingLoneliness! Loneliness is the last topic I thought I'd be writing about, as I was battling it myself while writing, but God had other plans. If you are in a season of loneliness, too, I pray the book offers you hope.

Earthly loneliness is temporary. #TransformingLoneliness

Some mid-week encouragement for you, friends.

Whatever type or degree of loneliness you are suffering, you are not alone. #TransformingLoneliness

Friends, I want you to know that the feeling of loneliness doesn't need to cause shame. It doesn't need to cause you to run farther. In fact, it's an invitation for us to draw closer to our Father. If you have these feelings today, I invite you to say this prayer along with me...

Remember this today. May it set the tone for understanding God’s heart toward the lonely. #TransformingLoneliness

In the depths of my loneliness, I did everything I could to avoid showcasing it. Knowing what I know now, I wish I had let others in sooner. Friends, if that is you, I encourage u to start the journey of being honest and transparent with those around u. It can change everything

To anyone experiencing these feelings today. You are not alone. I see you. I'm walking right alongside you.

Loneliness, unchallenged, has the power to eat away at our emotional, spiritual, and physical health. #TransformingLoneliness

Odds are we've all been lonely at some point in our lives. I know I have! I pray that my new book #TransformingLoneliness shows you that you aren't alone and offers you hope and encouragement for what is ahead. You can preorder the book today at your preferred retailer.

If we look at eternity and live according to that, your life will be meaningful.
