Our moments of loneliness are often the place whereGod is preparing us for what is ahead....Could it be that the seats in our lives are so filled withopinions that there is no room left for the facts?..Did you know that 40% of people in the world today are lonely? An even more shocking claim is that 60% of people who are married today are lonely. Contrary to popular belief loneliness has nothing to do with the amount people you have in your life. You can have an abundance of family and friends around and still be lonely. Likewise you can be alone and not be lonely. Paul Tillich writes, "Loneliness expresses the pain of being alone and solitude expresses the glory of being alone." What distinguishes these two from one another is whether or not you have the ability to properly manage being alone. The Crisis of Global loneliness has caused a tremendous amount of collateral damage for humankind to contend against. Its impact has affected young and old alike. Some of the most famous people in the world are also some of the loneliest people. While modern technology has afforded us the opportunity to be more connected to each other, there is a steady rise in suicide and depression among individuals suffering with loneliness. Still the question remains, why is it that something so prevalent is continually overlooked and misunderstood? How do we equip ourselves to handle being alone? The Liberation In Loneliness seeks to address these in depth dilemmas. There is no magical cure for loneliness. Loneliness and lonely people will always be around; however, we all possess the ability to utilize loneliness as a tool to unlock the depth of our potential, thus granting us a freedom in loneliness that is seldom experienced.
