More DescriptionIn our alone time, we can open our minds and hearts to God with sincerity. We can seek him while he may be found and find rest, comfort, direction, and assurance in his presence. We learn his will. We learn to love ourselves and others. We learn to hear his voice clearly. This is necessary because God is preparing each of us to enter into a world that is full of darkness. He is preparing us to be a light in a dark space. He wants us to be salt, worthy of the calling he has placed on our lives, extending love and kindness to others as much as possible. In the world, there are many distractions, troubles, and diverse temptations. As we go where God sends us, the voices of others will be loud and influential in our lives. We must be able to discern the voice of God from the influence others have on us. Our pain should not dictate our belief, and we must know that our fear does not manage our outcome. It is our faith in God that not only saves us but also others. The blessing of isolation rests in the ability it provides to learn to hear God.
