You are surrounded by little people all day, and yet you can feel pretty lonely. ⁣

I have felt this, a lot. ⁣

I’ve also had other solitary moments in my life where I may have looked fine, or been surrounded by friends, but I still felt all alone. ⁣

Have you felt like this before? Or maybe, do you feel it right now?⁣

Attending school, being given certain callings… these things can lead us to feel like we are in a solitary, draining place. ⁣

And honestly, it’s hard to feel like I can give service when I’m feeling drained and alone. ⁣

I don’t feel like getting out there and being proactive and doing things. ⁣

But the Savior is real. ⁣

He can take my solitary place and give it the nutrition that it needs. ⁣

To give it the light that it needs to still grow, even if it’s all alone. ⁣

To recognize that even when I feel completely drained, the Savior makes it possible for me to still give. ⁣

And not just give, but to be overflowing with ABUNDANCE.⁣

“Therefore, will I not make solitary places to bud and to blossom, and to bring forth in abundance? saith the Lord.” (D&C 117:7⁣)

He sees you in your lonely place. ⁣

But he doesn’t want you to stay there. ⁣

He wants to see you blossom and bring forth abundance, even when it seems impossible.⁣

Because honestly, impossible is what Jesus does.

Happy Studying!
