Many struggle with loneliness, especially those of us who are single. However, the promise that God gave to Joshua (Joshua 1:5), He also extends to all of us (Hebrews 13:5): “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” We can serve the Lord and one another boldly in whatever roles we have because we know that God is with us always.
