My longing for companionship is something God understands.

A Bible affirmation for waiting on love, rooted in Genesis 2:18.

The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.”

Genesis 2:18 · BSB

Reflection

In a perfect garden, God looked at the man alone and said it is not good. Before anything had gone wrong, God called aloneness not good. Your desire for companionship isn't weakness. God made you for connection.

A prayer

God, You know my longing for companionship. Meet me in it, and lead me well.
