loneliness

Every body feel lonely some time or most of the time.

My nephew msn me today tell me that he feel lonely before he msn me........... he is just below 12 and talk to me about loneliness, dieing, and stuff like that. i cann't blame him, his father deserted the family and is now a fugitive(i think). My sister divorced their father, and trying to earn a living doing a shift type of job. So he might in one time or another have to leave alone in the house if his brother and sister not at home. And cos of the dyfunction of the family, he was not close to his sister and brother............

So what i told him was to pray/read bible/book if he feel sad and lonely. I was staying too far from him to provide any other comfort. But asked him to call me on cell phone or msn/skype me if he find me on line............. that is how little i can do, but of course i can also pray for him...............
