There is a big difference between alone time and isolation.
While time alone spent in prayer, meditation, and communication with God is restorative and rejuvenating, isolation blocks us off from everyone and everything leaving us to become a slave to our self-centered thoughts.
Thankfully I have folks in my life who know me and help me to avoid traveling down the path of isolation.
I learned long ago that a good idea only becomes great when shared with another and not left to our own thoughts.
How often and how measured is your alone time?…
Check your experience…
“…being restored and united under one God, with hearts and minds attuned to the welfare of others,” Big Book pg. 161
Lord let us lean on our brothers and sisters in Christ for both good times and challenging seasons, AMEN.
“Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.” Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
