Today's word
Loneliness
Sit with this
Does this sound familiar?
The house is full or the house is empty, and either way you feel unseen. You scroll through people's plans and wonder when connection got so complicated.
A question for you
Who could you invite into something small this week — and what has been keeping you from asking?

“I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.”
— John 14:18 (WEB)
What this verse means
Jesus said this hours before His arrest, to friends about to feel abandoned. 'Orphans' is a deliberately harsh word — He names the exact fear. His answer is the Spirit: not a replacement, but His own presence continuing.
Today's guidance
Loneliness lies and says everyone else has a people and you're the exception. Most rooms are full of people feeling the same thing quietly.
He doesn't just sympathize with lonely. He comes into it.
Today's step
Invite someone to something small this week — coffee counts.
Prayer
Jesus, I'm lonely. Thank You for being with me right now, in this room. Would You also bring me real people? I don't want to do this alone anymore.
