How can a Christian stop feeling lonely?
Praying, journaling, reading Scripture and even sitting in silence with God can help you refocus on Him and depend more on Him. Having a strong connection with God enables you to cope better with feelings of loneliness by focusing your attention away from yourself and onto God.
What does the Bible say when you feel alone?
A good Bible verse about loneliness is Deuteronomy 31:6. It lets you know that you should be courageous and know you are not alone, since the Lord God is always with you.
What does the Bible say about feeling distant from God?
Here are 10 Bible verses for when you feel distant from God, with both kinds of encouragement.

Is God ever far from US?
Even if we feel distant from God, God is never far from us. Romans 8:38-39 says that nothing can separate us from God’s love. In Psalm 139:7-9, David says there is no place we can go to run away from God – he is always guiding us, always holding us. God may feel far – but he is always near. He lets us make our own choices. God grants us free will.
