		<description>Today the Lord revealed it to me that all I suffer is what fuels things He gives me for others. Even though this word is months old, it is still timely. I am passing it onto a seer friend who expressed loneliness to me only this morning. I had shared with her that I was also lonely within this calling. God bless!</description>

		<description>Jim, thank you for writing about the Lord&#039;s purposes in the midst of our loneliness.  By His grace, I hadn&#039;t really experienced loneliness for many years.  However, it was the pattern for many years of my life.   

I&#039;m in the lonely place again right now. It feels restrictive, like a coccoon. People have spoken prophetically that I&#039;ve been in &quot;in storage&quot; and am being hidden until His timing is right.  I also feel a deeper refining of my heart as I wait. So your writing encourages me today to hold fast to my Lord and rest deeply in His arms.  Ah, it is a good place after all! 

Blessings in overflow to you and Mims and all your house!</description>

		<description>This is a Word in due season for me today!!!! sometimes we need to go through the dry places in order to come up to where he needs us to be. I have to admit it&#039;s in these times that I dig the deepest and press in the hardest to push and birth into the next level God is calling me into. I too was a lonely child and adult at times...but I&#039;ve also known when it was best to be alone because of what I was going through...having outsiders around during those times can steal your faith and create doubt and failed expectations...this is when I pop in tapes I&#039;ve recorded for years and build myself back up, with praise &amp; worship, declarations and of course much prayer with fasting is always on the menu...getting quiet, listening.....these will become the times you treasure the most.</description>

		<description>Jim, did  you notice  you write an article about dreams and the number 2 and you get 4 comments, you write an article about spiritual acitivity and you get 21 comments but you write an article about loneliness you get 64 comments.  do you think this is a general poll of the population or just the type of readers you have?  Did that question make sense?</description>

		<description>I went through this, exactly like this, when I exposed the church of legalism, abuses, eventually fraud and theft by the millions. Everybody turned their back on me. It is also the loneliest years of my life, but I also got so used to it, enjoying the presence of the Lord.  It is the most intimate time of my life.  It is something, I will never ever trade.</description>

		<description>I know that sometimes the lonliness seems to be more at some times than others. And the word ostracized seems to be a word of encouragement or hope. That word makes me think of Jesus, how when He was being judged by Pontius Pilate He was completely and utterly forsaken, even by the ones that said they would even die with Him. And as Jesus looked for a familiar face to even watch and pray with Him, like when He was in the garden crying out to the Father in the final stages, knowing perfectly that it would be finished in a few days. He was the enduring, and waiting for the promise, that the Father had promised Him. And in Mark 15:33 at the sixth hour darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. Then in John 19:28-29 Jesus was thirsty. Then in John 19:30 Jesus said, it is finished after someone had filled a sponge with sour wine and put it to His lips. Then in Matthew 27:51-52 there was an earthquake that ripped into many things, a curtain that had been the holding place for the Ark of the covenant, and some rocks, and some graves and the graves that were ripped open were saints that walked into the city to show they were alive.
So I would suppose if we follow in Jesus footsteps, the outcome is greater than if we wouldnt have walked in Jesus footsteps. Considering He is our forerunner, and Savior. Jesus is the example for all.</description>

		<description>Thanks for writing this article. It is nice to know others experience this emptiness.  I can relate to Paul&#039;s writings in the bible where he wanted to be in heaven with God but knew God still needed him to do work here on earth. I have a great family, husband and everything I need, But my heart is to be with the Lord. My heart feels broken because I am not with him. Truly this must be the Lord drawing us to him because of his great love for us. I have found that nothing in this world can fill this void. Thanks for edification to the saints Jim. God Bless</description>
