Something amazing shared by ps. Joseph Prince.
"There’s no misery like a lonely heart.
A lonely heart doesn’t mean you’re not married or you don’t have a partner. You can have a partner and be married but still have a lonely heart. Loneliness is not a question of presence or absence of a human person. Loneliness is a state of the heart that is empty. Loneliness is different from aloneness and often we’re trying to fill that emptiness with our own made water put (the story of the Samaritan woman).
If you drink from human relationships, just solely from human relationships, you can be thirsty again. But Jesus says: but if you ask me, I’ll produce in you a well of Living Waters and you will never thirst again. A lot of people have a thirst. Not a physical thirst but an emotional/spiritual thirst. They think that going on a holiday can quench their thirst, but they come back thirsty, even thirstier sometimes. So it is with getting into relationships. We're usually looking outside ourselves to quench our thirst when Jesus says I’ll produce a well INSIDE YOU.
Our Savior can bring us to a place without condemnation and with define precision and skill where we no longer have to thirst.
The cure to a lonely heart is to be alone with Jesus."
