b'If only they took the time to really know me\\u2026.\\nIf only they took the time to ask how I\\u2019m doing\\u2026\\nIf only they understood my interests and what I want my life to be about\\u2026\\nDo you sometimes feel like no one knows you or understands you? Do you feel\\nas if your family members are so caught up in their own lives that they\\ndon\\u2019t really see you or notice when you are struggling? Do you rejoice\\nalone when good things happen?\\nIf you feel lonely, know that God sees you. If you feel like no one will\\nspend any real time with you, know that God is there and He understands\\nyou. God knows your secrets. He sees your pain and your celebrations. And\\nHe cares. He grieves your hurts alongside you, and He rejoices with you.\\nGod knows you in ways no human ever could. He created you, and He has been\\nby your side through all you\\u2019ve faced in life. \\nAt least He really knows me\\u2026\\nAt least He pays attention to how I\\u2019m doing each day\\u2026\\nAt least He understands my interests and what I want my life to be about\\u2026\\nHe truly cares. He wants to know me. \\u2022 Emily Acker\\n\\u2022 Do you ever feel unknown? How does it make you feel when you think about\\nGod seeing you and knowing you?\\n\\u2022 God loves you so much. He knows you completely, and He wants you to know\\nHim. Because Jesus came to die and rise again, you can have a relationship\\nwith the God who made you. Consider taking a moment to talk to God about\\nsomething that matters to you\\u2014it could be how you\\u2019re doing today, or\\nsomething you\\u2019re\\ninterested in, or even what you want your life to be about\\u2026God invites you\\nto talk to Him about all of it. He always has the time to listen, and He\\nalways understands.\\n\\u2022 God does not want us to be lonely. That\\u2019s why He built the church\\u2014a\\ncommunity of people who seek to know and love God and each other. Has\\nanyone shown God\\u2019s love to you when you felt lonely? What did they do? How\\ncould you show God\\u2019s love to others who might be lonely?\\nYou have searched me, Lord, and you know me. Psalm 139:1 (NIV)\\n\\xa0\\nRead Verses:\\nPs.139.1-Ps.139.12'
