John 14

1DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me.
2In My Father's house there are many dwelling places (homes). If it were not so, I would have told you; for I am going away to prepare a place for you.

For one thing, i don't get how this helps with my question. Is this saying that i'm homeless until heaven? How does that give me any hope while i'm here ( ... )

i like this passage. i mean the comfort and clear instruction to be at peace is amazing. People were not meant to be alone, but if God calls us permanently or temporarily to be physically alone, than He will make a way for it to be joyful and peaceful while there. We are to be content with Him no matter where we are. we don't have to be sad when things are continually a certain way. i find that amazing. Thanks Stacy and Kathy, if you read this, I love you too. Well I will love you even if you DONT read this but you get the idea. lol :P bye bye

He'll make a way for it to be joyful and peaceful? That's one of the things i don't get. I feel like i'm constantly looking for joy and peace, but they're impossible to find when i'm alone. I know that's not good, but i don't know what to do about it. I don't know how to be content. I don't know how to not be sad.

I want you to know kathy that I have no dropped this. I have not just given up, put in my two cents and left, or seen this as too hard for me to address. I have a heart for the people who want to know "how" because that was the heart of my frustrations for years with certain things. I will get back to you if God gives me anything or if I think of anything that could be helpful. Im still here even if I am far away. The people in the Bible who were called to be alone for a time in their lives complained as well but it did not stop there. While you figure this out, while you search this issue, remember you are not the first to be alone physically and the ones before you at some point found hope. Whatever you do remember God is good and when things get confusing, it will not end there. I love you
