Our deepest need

“No one cares for my soul.” (Ps. 142:4)

There is perhaps no greater expresssion of loneliness in the Bible.  All of us have felt this way at one time or another.  It speaks to our deepest need as human beings.  A spiritual kind of loneliness – even in a crowd of people, even among friends.

Christ is the answer to loneliness.  He was forsaken by his Father on the cross that we might be embraced.  “Cast all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.”
