Last Lone Wolf

Facebook. Instagram. Twitter. Zoom. Never in the history of mankind have we possessed so many tools that allow us to stay connected to the world and the people around us.And Yet never have we experienced so much loneliness.How is this possible?Much of the reason is that we have exchanged quality for quantity, thinking that simply knowing more and more people will somehow assauge our deep longing for intimacy, for connection, for soulmates who we can count on to walk with us through all the adventures of a lifetime. Unfortunately, it never works, because God did not create us for shallow relationships. He created us to be KNOWN, valued, appreciated, delighted in -- all the things that we experience when we are with our oldest and dearest friends. Most Christians don't know this: that God's extravagant goodness towards us extends to His desire to fill our lives with deep, satisfying, lifelong friendships, friendships that will in turn transform us, and ultimately change the world. Do we believe it? Do we have the courage to seek out these relationships and invest ourselves in making them all that they could be?
