Loneliness (Intro)

Hi, I'm Victoria. I prefer being called my short form, Toria. I am eighteen years old, I love photography, my family and best of all... I'm a Christian.

From the time I was little I loved being alone, I loved reading books in my room after school and before bed, I loved playing with my barbies and having my own world in each of my actives that was my own. 

I've realized mostly recently that because of lack of imagination, I'm more lonely.

I still thoroughly enjoy being alone. Whether that be watching YouTube videos in my room for a few hours or going on a two hour drive by myself... I love it. 

But, we are never actually alone... and for me, there's two parts to that statement. 

As The Lord has led my walk through life, I've had up and down seasons in my life.

I've had times where I'm on fire for God and times where I'd rather just sleep or occupy my time in other ways, ways that have nothing to do with God.

God has never left me through any of those times, the hot times and the Luke warm; even though those "should never exist" we all know that they do.

I've come to see through time by myself, it's so much more enjoyable to have Him to talk to.. being lonely stems from lack of God, lack of prayer, lack of effort and lack of intimacy with Him. 

I find everyone this generation always needs to be entertained, always needs something to do, but through my deep breathes, I've seen God show me comfort, and that once I invest myself into time with him instead of YouTube or sleep, I feel so much more fulfilled and  comforted.  

The second part is imagination, but I'll talk about that more soon ;) 😏😂

1 Peter 5:7: "Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." 

Isaiah 41:10: "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
